The shiitake mushroom (Lentinulaedodes) is one of the most popular edible mushrooms in the world and has attracted attention for its value in medicinal and pharmacological uses. With recent advanced research and techniques, the agricultural cultivation of the shiitake mushroom has been greatly increased, especially in East Asia. Additionally, demand for the development of new cultivars with goo...

Mushrooms contain multiple essential nutrients and health-promoting bioactive compounds, including the amino acid L-ergothioneine. Knowledge of chemical composition different mushroom varieties will aid research on their properties. We compared metabolomes fresh raw white button, crimini, portabella, lion’s mane, maitake, oyster, shiitake mushrooms using untargeted liquid chromatography mass sp...

abstract: using agricultural waste is one of the best ways to reduce the costs and the environmental pollution. button mushroom´s stipe is a cheap by-product that is rich in nutrients for human nutrition. the purpose of this study is to compare the nutritional value of cap and stipe of button mushroom (agaricus bisporus). the caps were separated from the stipes after harvesting and parameters s...

to reduce peat while increasing the water holding capacity (whc) of casing soil in button mushroom production an experiment was conducted in 2006 with three hydrogel treatments of: t0= casing soil with no hydrogel, as control, t1= casing soil + 10% hydrogel (v/v), and t2= casing soil + 20% hydrogel (v/v) with three replicates in a completely randomized design. results indicated that treatment 1...

Mushrooms have been used by humans for millennia. The commonly cultivated mushrooms include Agaricus, Lentinus, Flammulina, Pleurotusand Volvariella. In India, Button mushroom (Agaricusbisporus)is the most followed Pleurotus(Shah et al., 2013). Mushrooms are mainly subjected to bacterial, fungal and viral diseases. production of fruiting bod...

conclusions basidomes collected from four locations in thailand had low genetic variation and their extracts inhibited the growth of all tested bacteria. the health benefits of this edible species should be evaluated further. background boletus griseipurpureus corner, an edible mushroom, is a putative ectomycorrhizal fungus. currently, the taxonomic boundary of this mushroom is unclear and its ...

The commercialization of mushrooms is critical because they have a short shelf life. For this reason, we investigated the effect agar-agar and egg white protein on weight loss, polyphenol oxidase catalase, content, total phenolics, antioxidant capacity, respiration rate, ethylene production storability button mushrooms. Our findings suggested that treatment edible coating delayed remarkably sen...
