To provide a basis for the variation of fruit bodies of winter mushroom (Flammulina velutipes), the organic acid composition of its fruit bodies was investigated with several varieties of winter mushroom indifferent temperature and storage period. In the fruit bodies of winter mushroom, a total of 10 organic acids including acetic acid, butyric acid, citric acid, fumaric acid, DL-isocitric acid, L(+)lactic acid, D-malic acid, propionic acid, succinic acid, and D-tartaric acid were detected. In the most of the winter mushroom, acetic acid was the main organic acid component and fumaric acid was the least included component. Acetic acid, which is a mono-carboxyl group of organic acid, is contained in different levels according to different varieties and different storage temperature. Butyric acid is extremely variable in its quantity, depending on variety and different storage temperature. In contrast, fumaric acid, which is a dicarboxyl group of organic acid, decreased in its quantity during storage with 1.5 mg/g. Especially, ASI 4149, 4166 varieties tend to differ in their quantity. Besides, malic acid is extremely variable in its quantity according to variety and storage temperature. Citric acid, a tri-carboxyl group of organic acid, increased in its quantity according to storage period, which enables us to efficiently manage storage period. Isocitric acid is also extremely variable in its quantity according to variety, storage temperature and storage period.
