Development of Bacteriology in China
In ancient China, there were many works describing edible and medicinal fungi, such as "Bacterial Spectrum" written by Chen (1245) in the Southern Song Dynasty, which recorded the growth period, morphological characteristics, color and fragrance of1strain. In the Ming Dynasty, Pan Zhiheng recorded 19 kinds of mushrooms in 1500. In Qing Dynasty, Wu Linchuan (1703) described the edible fungi in Gusu area, which were divided into three categories according to their practical value, and their morphological characteristics, fruiting season, collecting place and poisonous bacteria were recorded in detail. In addition, there are descriptions of fungi in ancient books, especially in agriculture, medicine, herbs, philosophy and poetry.
China began to study fungi with modern scientific methods in the early 20th century. Dai (1893 ~ 1973) began to study fungi and plant diseases in China after the First World War. His first paper was The Treatment of Current Plant Diseases (1920).
Since 1949, great progress has been made in mycology research in China, and scientific research institutions centered on the Institute of Applied Fungi of China Academy of Sciences (the predecessor of Institute of Microbiology) have been established, including fungi-related research institutes (rooms) in universities, which have expanded the research team and improved the research conditions. In particular, the brilliant 1978 ~ 1993 has a faster development speed, and the establishment of fungi, especially edible fungi, has mushroomed. /kloc-more than 0/000 professionals engaged in fungal research, published more than 80 monographs on various fungi, and found 20 new genera in the field of mycology. Fungi in China has been edited and published one after another. Academic journals such as Journal of Fungi and Fungal Systems (English version) and intermediate and popular science journals such as Medicinal Fungi, Edible Mushrooms in China and Edible Mushrooms have been published one after another. The Fungal Society of China (formerly known as Fungal Society) was established in 1993. During this period, remarkable achievements have been made in the study of fungi classification, wild fungi culture, flora, large resource fungi and plant pathogens, and research work has been carried out in the fields of myxomycetes, lichens, mycorrhiza, entomogenous fungi, medicinal fungi, mycotoxins and fungal viruses, and a number of qualified mycologists have emerged.
