Growth media composition needs to be considered because it can affect the growth and development of white oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus). Wood factory waste in form sawdust is commonly used as mushroom’s media. However, problem arises when source growing difficult access from cultivation location. There’s a need for an alternative that cheap accessible. Some them are rice bran, soybean h...

The insect mushroom bodies are prominent higher order neuropils consisting of thousands of approximately parallel projecting intrinsic neurons arising from the minute basophilic perikarya of globuli cells. Early studies described these structures as centers for intelligence and other higher functions; at present, the mushroom bodies are regarded as important models for the neural basis of learn...

The objective of this research was to evaluate the oyster mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus- (Jacq.: Fr.) Kumm. cultivation in substrates based on different combinations of wastes (leaf, pseudo-stem and pseudo-stem + leaf) and banana cultivars - Musa spp. (Thap Maeo, Prata AnãPelipita and Caipira) during 49 days. Organic matter loss in the substrate by action of the fungus was also evaluated during ...

This service aims to determine the use of oyster mushrooms for food needs as local wisdom urban communities. The method used with an ethnographic approach is describe in detail mushroom cultivation technique community Kalidoni District, Palembang City. process cultivating from start harvest takes about one month. Baglog sawdust can last 7 months, then it must be replaced new planting media. tim...

Pleurotus giganteus is a commercially cultivated high-temperature mushroom. Investigating the molecular mechanism of fruiting body development will help us to better understand regulation substrates and energy in this process. However, little information has been reported on nutrients P. body. In present study, climate chamber, comparative transcriptome, proteome, nutritional analysis bodies we...

agaricus bisporus is the most important industrially cultivated edible mushroom. using organic wastes as substrate for cultivation of edible mushroom can provide a perfect solution for disposal of these waste materials and is part of the world's food requirements .in this study to investigate the usability of various organic wastes as growing bed for button mushroom, four types of substrat...

Metallic silver nanoparticles have been reduced from silver nitrate by employing the extracellular enzymatic machinery of edible White button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). The physical properties of these particles, size and shapes have been determined using techniques like TEM, FTIR and XRD and were reported in our earlier report. But, what stands of paramount importance in the presen...

It is estimated that there are over 5,000 species of mushrooms worldwide. Some of them are edible and some are poisonous due to containing significant toxins. In more than 95% of mushroom toxicity cases, poisoning occurs as a result of misidentification of the mushroom by an amateur mushroom hunter. The severity of mushroom poisoning may vary, depending on the geographic location where the mush...
