Dry bubble disease is a major problem in the commercial cultivation of the white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus and is caused by the ascomycete Lecanicillium fungicola. In the casing layer, germination of L. fungicola spores is inhibited by the microflora, a phenomenon known as fungistasis. Fungistasis is annulled when the casing is colonized by A. bisporus hyphae. We demonstrated that addit...

in this study, the recovery of casing soil consumed in the white button mushroom was investigated. casing soil is used as a layer on compost (culture medium) to a diameter of 3-5to stimulate fruiting on the white button mushroom(agaricus bisporus) . the expense od casing soil is about 30 percent of production costs. in the first step of this experiment, in order to separate casing soil from com...

dry bubble disease is one of the most important serious diseases of the cultivated white button mushroom (agaricus bisporus (lange) imbach). it is a cosmopolitan disease having a worldwide distribution. ten isolates of lecanicillium fungicola var. fungicola (preuss) zare and gams were collected from mushroom farms. sensitivity of the isolates to benomyl, carbendazim, carbendazim+iprodione and p...

The symptoms of viral infections of fungi range from cryptic to severe, but there is little knowledge of the factors involved in this transition of fungal/viral interactions. Brown cap mushroom disease of the cultivated Agaricus bisporus is economically important and represents a model system to describe this transition. Differentially expressed transcript fragments between mushrooms showing th...

Presence of Trichoderma aggressivum f. (green mold disease) either in compost or casing soil causes significant yield losses button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) cultivation. The aim this study was to examine biotic interactions between A. bisporus and T. soil. In the study, strains (brown white) isolates (Şem1/1 K3) were used. Experiments (compost soil) conducted according completely randomized...

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...

abstract as hybrid spawn is propagated asexually in edible mushrooms, producers may propagate it without the permission of the owner. for the protection of the owner right, there is a great need for a molecular certificate for each commercial line. the high-resolution genotyping method of amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) analysis was used to prepare molecular certifications and fin...

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...
