Abstract: In agriculture, there is an urgent need for alternate ecofriendly products to control plant diseases. These alternate products must possess preferable characteristics such as new modes of action, cost effectiveness, biodegradability, and target specificity. In the current scenario, studies on macrofungi have been an area of importance for scientists. Macrofungi grow prolifically and are found in many parts of the world. Basidiomycetes () flourish ubiquitously under warm and humid climates. Basidiomycetes are rich sources of natural . The secondary metabolites produced by them possess antimicrobial, antitumor, and antioxidant properties. The present review discusses the potential role of Basidiomycetes as anti-phytofungal, anti-phytobacterial, anti-phytoviral, mosquito larvicidal, and nematicidal agents.

Keywords: biocontrol properties; basidiomycetes; anti-phytofungal activity; anti-phytobacterial activity; anti-phytoviral activity; phytonematicidal activity; mosquito larvicidal activity

1. Introduction Synthetic chemicals are extensively used in all countries for controlling agricultural pests and plant pathogens [1]. Currently 15% of global crop production is lost due to crop pests [2]. To counteract this, agrochemicals are used in excessive quantities/volumes; it has become apparent that these chemicals are responsible for causing environmental pollution. They leave their residues in food [3]. Unrestrained application of synthetic chemicals causes pesticide resistance, toxicity to humans, , and , and therefore they are regarded as ecologically unacceptable [4]. Mosquitoes are the most well-known vectors of disease causing pathogens which affect millions of people every year [5]. In India, major diseases are caused by mainly three types of mosquitoes [6], namely Aedes aegypti L., Anopheles stephensi (Liston), and Culex quinquefasciatus (Say). Ae. aegypti is a known vector for dengue and chikungunya virus. The malarial parasite is transmitted by An. stephensi and the filarial is transmitted by Cx. quinquefasciatus. Prevention of mosquito borne diseases is important in order to improve public health, and it is primarily achieved by controlling the vector mosquito population. In recent years, mosquito control programs have encountered failures due to the rapid development of pesticide resistance in mosquitoes [7]. have been present for nearly a billion years and are known to cause severe losses to farmers [8]. They feed on many, if not all plants [9]. This pathogen is predominantly part of class

Due to chemical contamination of soil caused by commercial nematicides, newer sources of eco-friendly biomolecules are required in the future. nematicides, newer sources of eco-friendly biomolecules are required in the future. Pest and pathogen diversities are continuously expanding and new strains are continuously Pest and pathogen diversities are continuously expanding and new strains are continuously evolving over time [11]. Scientists are looking for safe and more potent alternate products for evolving over time [11]. Scientists are looking for safe and more potent alternate products for controlling plant pathogens and pests. The use of natural products for pest control is ideal for controlling plant pathogens and pests. The use of natural products for pest control is ideal for sustainable agricultural production with minimum damage to the environment [12]. Basidiomycetes sustainable agricultural production with minimum damage to the environment [12]. Basidiomycetes are the fruiting bodies of higher fungi [13]. Several compounds have been isolated from wild are the fruiting bodies of higher fungi [13]. Several compounds have been isolated from wild Basidiomycetes (Figure1) which showed growth inhibition of bacteria, virus, and fungi (Table1) Basidiomycetes (Figure 1) which showed growth inhibition of bacteria, virus, and fungi (Table 1) and recorded nematicidal and insecticidal properties [14–27]. In the last few years, Basidiomycetes and recorded nematicidal and insecticidal properties [14–27]. In the last few years, Basidiomycetes have received great attention due to their medicinal values, easy availability, and lower side effects have received great attention due to their medicinal values, easy availability, and lower side effects and toxicity on non-target organisms [28]. There are nearly 140,000 Basidiomycetes reported and toxicity on non-target organisms [28]. There are nearly 140,000 Basidiomycetes species reported among which about 660 species possess medicinal properties [29]. A number of pharmaceutical among which about 660 species possess medicinal properties [29]. A number of pharmaceutical substances with potent and unique characteristics have been extracted from Basidiomycetes [30]. substances with potent and unique characteristics have been extracted from Basidiomycetes [30].

Anti-Phytobacterial Activities Secondary metabolites isolated from various Basidiomycetes have been known to show antibacterial properties [62–65]. Basidiomycetes provide effective and low-cost products for human and plant disease control. Members of Ganodermatales, Poriales, , and Stereales show potential antibacterial activity and these may become substitutes for developing new antibiotics [66].

The effect of secondary metabolites of Basidiomycetes has been investigated mainly on human and animal pathogens. Erjave et al. reported that 15 Basidiomycetes extracts showed moderate to high antibacterial activities and three extracts regressed the disease as well as reduced the severity in vitro and in vivo against bacterial wilt disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum [67]. Extracts from Clytocybe geotropa showed broad range of inhibition against R. solanacearum, Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, P. syringae pv. syringae, X. campestris pv. Vesicatoria, and Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus. Purified protein, Clitocypin, from C. geotropa showed effective inhibition against C. michiganensis subsp. Sepedonicus [68]. The fungicide strobilurin F 500 enhanced resistance of tobacco to the wild fire pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci [69]. Coprinol (Figure 3), isolated from Coprinus sp., showed inhibitory activity against most of the plant pathogens [70].

It showed inhibitory activity to infection of TMV on Nicotiana glutinosa.

2.4. Phytonematicidal Activity Researchers throughout the world have become increasingly interested in diminishing the use of chemical strategies against parasites [81–83]. A recent study has demonstrated that some species of edible Basidiomycetes such as Pleurotus species possess nematicidal activity through the production of a nematode-toxin, which is able to inhibit the nematode movement, allowing hyphal penetration, and finally digesting the body by enzymatic action [84]. Such biological activity could be the result of a self-defense mechanism in Basidiomycetes which acts against the attack of myceliophagous nematodes [85]. Other studies have shown that P. ostreatus produces a nematode-toxin similar to peroxides which inhibits the movement of nematodes and subsequently degrades them, reaching a mortality of 95% in the free-living nematode Panagrellus redivivus (adults) and the phytopathogenic nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus [86]. Another study conducted by Palizi et al. showed that P. eryngii caused 50% mortality against the phytopathogenic nematode schantii which caused wilting in sugarcane and other crops. In general, nematicidal activity shown by the different strains of P. eryngii ranged between 4.8%–99.6%. The nematicidal effect of specific edible Basidiomycetes could be influenced by a number of factors like temperature, incubation time of the confrontation, inner genetic characteristics of each of the strains, and differences between nematode species used [87]. Some dead larvae observed with mycelium inside their bodies suggested that the larval death was a consequence of body rupture and invasion by fungal mycelia [87]. Mamiy reported that a strain of immobilized, killed, and consumed the free-living nematode Panagrellus redivivus and the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne arenaria [88]. The author reported mechanical damage in the free-living nematode P. redivivus, 8 h post-confrontation with C. comatus mycelia, resulting in 90% nematode immobilization and subsequent degradation, at 24 ◦C incubation. The strains of the edible ECS-1123 and ECS-0152, P. eryngii ECS-1290 and ECS -1291, P. cornucopiae ECS-1328 and ECS-1330, and Lentinula edodes ECS-0401 displayed high nematicidal activity with a range of 82% to 99% mortality [84]. Bua-art et al. reported the potential use of bioactive compounds from luminescent Basidiomycete ( nambi) for control of plant parasitic root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. The results revealed that concentrations of 500 mg/L were highly toxic to M. incognita causing 100% mortality within 30 min [89]. Anisaldehyde, 3-chloro-anisaldehyde, and (4-methoxyphenyl)-1,2-propandiol were isolated from several common wood and forest-litter degrading fungi (e.g., , Bjerkandera adusta, Hypholoma fasciculare, and Pholiota squarrosa)[90]. Weak antifungal and nematicidal properties have been described for p-anisaldehyde (Figure5a) and (4-methoxyphenyl)-1,2-propandiol. Fatty acids like S-coriolic acid or linoleic acid (Figure5b) isolated from P. pulmonarius exhibited nematicidal effects against the saprophytic nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, with LD50 (Median lethal dosage) values of 10 and 5 µg/mL, respectively [91]. These nematicidal effects depended on the degree of unsaturation and the length of the fatty acid. A nematicidal monoterpene, 1,2-dihydroxymintlactone, was isolated from Cheimonophyllum candidissimum. It recorded LD50 value of 25 µg/mL against C. elegans and herbicidal effects against Setaria italica and Lepidium sativum at concentrations starting from 50 µg/mL [92]. Cheimonophyllons and cheimonophyllal were isolated from the wood-inhabiting Basidiomycete Cheimonophyllum candidissimum and they exhibited nematicidal activities against nematode C. elegans [92]. The Furaldehydes, 5-pentyl-2-furaldehyde (Figure5c) J. Fungi 2017, 3, 2 8 of 14 and 5(4-penteny)-2-furaldehyde (Figure5d) isolated from Irpex lacteus, exhibited nematicidal activity against Aphelencoides besseyi [93]. A nematicidal cyclic peptide omphalotin (Figure5e) was isolated from biomass after fermentation of olearius [94]. 1-Hydroxypyrene (Figure5f) derived from Crinipellis stipitaria showed very strong nematicidal activity against C. elegans [53]. The cultural filtrates from Amauroderma macer, Laccaria tortilis, and Tylopilus striatulus showed high nematicidal activityJ.
