A mushroom metabolite, 10-oxo-trans-8-decenoic acid (ODA) was supplemented to potato dextrose yeast agar or broth at 0, 2.5, 5, and 10 ppm. With the addition of ODA, the relative linear growth rates of king oyster mushroom mycelia (P. eryngii, obtained from Taichung, China) were around 1.84 to 1.89. When ODA was spread on top of the agar at 5 and 10 ppm, the relative linear growth rates were 1.35 and 1.47, respectively.
