Insights on Strain-Substrate Interactions and Antioxidant and Anti-Bacterial Properties of the Velvet Foot Medicinal Mushroom Flammulina velutipes (Agaricomycetes).

To study the best substrate for the Indian subcontinent, four different substrates (sawdust + wheat bran, wheat straw + wheat bran + corn cobs, sawdust + corn cobs and wheat straw + wheat bran) were screened for six different Flammulina velutipes strains. The antioxidant and antibacterial properties were studied for these strains. In study it was found that the strain DMRX-767 and DMRX-768 were the most promising for yield and biological efficiency in all substrates and wheat straw + wheat bran being the best with respect to BE.

Identification of Eight High Yielding Strains via Morpho-Molecular Characterization of Thirty-Three Wild Strains of .

, generally referred as milky mushroom, is one of the edible mushroom species suitable for cultivation in the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. However, lack of potential high yielding strains has limited its wider adaptability. To overcome this limitation, in this study, the germplasms of from different geographical regions of India were characterized based on their morphological, molecular and agronomical attributes.

Identification and morpho-molecular characterization of low spore strain in oyster mushroom.

Background: Sporocarps of oyster mushroom liberate enormous spores and cause allergic reactions to workers involved in its cultivation. These spore-related allergies include stiffness or pain in the forearms, limbs, itchy throat, grogginess, and respiratory problems and are major problems during oyster mushroom cultivation.

Methods And Results: In this study, we have generated seven hybrids using single-spore isolates (SSIs) of Pleurotus ostreatus var.

Identification of Key Regulatory Pathways of Basidiocarp Formation in spp. Using Modeling, Simulation and System Biology Studies.

(Oyster mushroom) is an important cultivated edible mushroom across the world. It has several therapeutic effects as it contains various useful bio-molecules. The cultivation and crop management of these basidiomycete fungi depends on many extrinsic and intrinsic factors such as substrate composition, growing environment, enzymatic properties, and the genetic makeup, etc.

Biochemical Profiling and Cultivation of Medicinal Fungus Isaria cicadae (Ascomycetes) from India.

Isaria cicadae is an entomopathogenic fungus possessing several therapeutic properties and has a potential role in traditional Chinese medicine. The present study was designed to describe the taxonomic details of a new isolate of I. cicadae collected from the Northern Himalayas of India and to study its vegetative and reproductive growth responses under in vitro conditions.

Nutritional and Biochemical Characterization of Panus lecomtei Mushroom (Agaricomycetes) from India and Its Cultivation.

Panus lecomtei is emerging as an edible mushroom found worldwide and particularly in the Northern Hemisphere. The mushroom contains a substantial amount of useful nutritional and medicinal compounds. In the present study, we have examined a specimen of P.

Substrate sterilization with thiophanate-methyl and its biodegradation to carbendazim in oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus var. florida).

Residue analysis to detect thiophanate-methyl and its primary metabolite (carbendazim) during oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus var. florida) cultivation was done for two consecutive years 2017 and 2018. Wheat straw substrate was chemically treated with different treatments of thiophate-methyl, viz, thiophanate-methyl 30 ppm + formalin 500 ppm (T1), thiophanate-methyl 40 ppm + formalin 500 ppm (T2), thiophanate-methyl 50 ppm + formalin 500 ppm (T3), thiophanate-methyl 60 ppm + formalin 500 ppm (T4), and formalin 500 ppm (T5 as control and recommended concentration), and utilized for cultivation of oyster mushroom.

Genetic improvement in (oyster mushroom): a review.

is an important genus comprising several edible species of great commercial significance. These species are grown all across the world. The production areas of mainly belong to the Asian part and are gaining wide popularity across the globe owing to their promising nutritional gains.

Modelling of the methyl halide biodegradation in bacteria and its effect on environmental systems.

Methyl halide group of pesticides are being used widely in past decades as fumigant but due to their hazardous effect, these pesticides are not sold directly. They are volatile and gaseous in nature and may easily come in the contact of trophosphere and stratosphere. In troposphere, they are harmful to the living beings; nevertheless, in stratosphere they react with ozone and degrade the ozone layers.

Bryophytes: Hoard of remedies, an ethno-medicinal review.

Bryophytes are the second largest group of land plants after angiosperms. There is very less knowledge available about medicinal properties of these plants. Bryophytes are popular remedy among the tribal people of different parts of the world.
