The development of Polyporus brumalis basidomycete cultures, both in the dark and in the light, was studied in the 17 day experiment on the orbital station Salyut 5 and in the 20 day experiment on the orbital station Salyut 6. In the first experiment the test tube cultures were exposed to weightlessness beginning from the stage of the fruiting body primordium. In the second experiment the culture was exposed in large containers at the stage of mycelium growth. In the first experiment fruiting bodies that had formed in light had stems and caps approximating the appearance and anatomical structure of the control culture. The fruiting bodies and caps were oriented towards the light. Some structural changes in the hymenophore were observed. Fruiting bodies developed in the dark had twisted stems and no caps. In the second experiment no fruiting bodies were formed in the dark. Light-optical and electron-microscopic studies of Polyporus brumalis growth under weightlessness were carried out.

The road of lipid migration in flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) during germination.

Lipids are essential sources of carbon and energy during flaxseed germination; however, the dynamic changes in key lipid metabolites, pathways, and their locations remain unclear. This study revealed that oil bodies migrated from well-distributed locations to the cell wall between 0-2 d, with cell contours gradually blurring during 2-3 d, initiating the germination process. Subsequently, the order of oil body migration was leaf > stem > root during 4-7 d.

Background: Although little is yet known about the long-term maintenance of very low-energy ketogenic therapy (VLEKT) effects on body composition, muscle strength and inflammation, it is plausible to assume that changes may occur, particularly during the steps following the ketogenic step, due to the loss of the protective effects of ketones and the concomitant reintroduction of carbohydrates. For this reason, the present study aimed to evaluate the effects of supplementation with 8 g per day of essential amino acids (EAAs) on these parameters.

Methods: A total of 68 women of reproductive age and with grade I obesity who had completed 45 days of the ketogenic phase with VLEKT (KeNuT protocol) and 40 days of non-ketogenic phase of KeNuT protocol with VLEKT (phase 3, fruit reintroduction) were included in the study.

Cardiovascular risk factors begin in childhood and track into adulthood, increasing the possibility of impaired cardiometabolic health. Adopting healthy dietary patterns can help curb childhood obesity, a worrisome epidemic problem at present. In the era of personalized nutrition, dietary recommendations should be adapted to different stages of life, including children (older than 3 years) and adolescents.

The cultivation period of shiitake () is approximately 120-150 d, which is longer than that of other edible mushrooms. The development of fruiting bodies in shiitake is affected by light exposure. In this study, we investigated the effects of blue light on the production and ergothioneine contents of shiitake mushrooms.

Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) are crucial for the formation of fruiting bodies, including the newly discovered , in Korea. This study explores the diversity and distribution of EMF communities associated with across various regions in Korea and assesses the effects of soil physicochemical properties on these communities. Soil analysis indicated that habitats have a lower pH compared to habitats documented in other studies, with sandy loam texture being optimal for fruiting body development.
