摘　　要：Ganoderma P.Karst.is a cosmopolitan and species-rich genus of mushrooms that can cause root and butt rot diseases on many woody tree species.Many members of this genus are found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide.Ganoderma species have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years for maintaining vivacity and longevity.Some Ganoderma species are well-known for being abundant sources of highly active bioactive substances like polysaccharides,proteins,steroids,and triterpenoids.The numerous metabolic processes of Ganoderma have been studied both in vitro and in vivo.However,it is debatable if Ganoderma is a nutritional supplement that promotes health,or a medication used for therapeutic purposes.Products made from Ganoderma have been marketed as potent food and medication supplements with positive health effects.Over the past three decades,the Ganoderma market has experienced significant growth,and hundreds of products are currently being offered on the market.However,in Sri Lanka,there hasn't been much research on Ganoderma.Hence,a comprehensive account of the historical perspective,recent advances,and future trends of Ganoderma research in Sri Lanka is provided in this review.Furthermore,this review aims to increase the research interest,evaluate the recent developments,and address the missing gaps in research on Ganoderma.
