In macrobasidial fungi, the properties of compounds of a phytohormonal nature, which are well known in higher plants and are intensively studied in soil associative microorganisms, are only described in an unsystematic manner and, apparently, to an insufficient degree. Auxins are the most studied group of phytohormonal substances. As an object of research, along with other mycological objects o...

Three experiments were performed to determine the effect of selected saccharides on mushroom yield and basidiome size of shiitake (Lentinula edodes) when grown on a synthetic substrate. Substrate formulations of sawdust, wheat bran, and millet were nonamended or amended with sucrose, fructose, or glucose. Addition of sucrose (0.6 to 1.2% [dry weight]) to the substrate stimulated mushroom yield ...

Dear Editor, Scratch dermatitis, or flagellate erythema, is characterized by linear erythematous/hyperpigmented streaks, and can be caused by shiitake mushroom, bleomycin, dermatomyositis and Still’s disease. Engraftment syndrome (ES) presents with pyrexia, maculopapular eruption and edema during neutrophil recovery following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Here, we describe a case wit...

in order to evaluate the effect of substrate and enrichment material on biological efficiency (be) and other physical and chemical propertiese of medicinal mushroom shiitake (lentinula edodes) an investigation was perfomed as factorial experiment in completely randomized designe with four replications in khorramabad city of lorestan continent iran. experimental factors were substrate in three l...
