We evaluated the biomass and ergosterol content of Hericium erinaceus mycelium,and extracellular enzyme activities in H.erinaceus liquid culture following salicylic acid(SA)and methyl jasmonic acid(MeJA) supplementation.The optimal SA concentration was 100 l molL-1,where the highest ergosterol content of 2.33 mgg-1was obtained following 6-day cultivation with 100 l molL-1SA supplementation,and which was significantly higher than the unsupplemented control (p
