A unique feature of the seminar was that it brought together all scientists working in the field of molecular genetics of Agaricus. The international gathering and free and mutual exchange of ideas has led to an intensified international cooperation. This will bring mushroom genetics where it belongs: at the forefront of science. This book has become a comprehensive condensation of Agaricus genetics. It contains the scientific knowledge of the genome and has practical use in breeding and spawn preparation. The invaluable help of Ms. Ineke Dohmen in the preparation of the manuscript is gratefully acknowledged. L.J.L.D. Van Griensven vu KEYNOTE LECTURE A PERSONAL VIEW ON MUSHROOM BREEDING FROM 1957-1991 Gerda Fritsche Professor van Griensven has invited me to tell you about my views on 34 years of personal involvement in the field of mushroom breeding. I was pleased to accept, since it has been a wonderful time during which many things have changed. Encouraged by Van Griensven, I should also like to tell you something about the period preceeding my mushroom career. From 1929 -1955 I was born in 1929 in Merseburg, a medium-sized town in central Germany near Leipzig. When the Nazi's came to power, I was three years old. At ten years old, I saw the outbreak of the Second World War. After the War, my home town was allocated to the Russian zone of occupation, later East-Germany. In the meantime I was 16 years old and went to a highschool for girls. Relatives of my father, he himself originating from the countryside, found refuge in my parental home. They were evicted from hearth and home by the new authorities, because they owned more than 250 acres of land. I went to school until 1948. It was never a problem for me, what I was going to be one day. I wanted to be engaged in nature in the widest sense. My mother, watching me nursing our pot plants with great care, suggested botany as a field of study. A vocational bureau informed us, that I could become a teacher after studying in botany. Yet, I wanted to go into research. A study in horticulture was recommended. This study was preceeded by a horticultural training. I could practise this in a nursery, owned by relatives of a schoolfriend and charmingly situated in the beautiful south Harz countryside. After this training was finished, I applied in 1950 for a course of study in horticulture at the Humbold University in East-Berlin. I was refused without reason. Probably this was because my father was a physician and at that time children of university graduates were not allowed to study. Another reason was perhaps that I was not a member of the communist youth organization 'Free German Youth'. At the time, the refusal was not catastrophic for me, since the borders to the free West were still open. You only had to take the underground in East-Berlin and to travel to West-Berlin. But in West-Berlin, courses in horticulture started only in 1951. From 1950 till 1952, I was a horticultural assistant in a seed breeding nursery in the 'Flowertown' Erfurt. Plant breeding already fascinated me at that time. This period in practical plant breeding was very beneficial. In November 1952, I started my horticultural study at the Technical University in West-Berlin, together with some 20 fellow-students, most of them also originating from the East. We received a scholarship, one warm meal daily distributed by the Americans, and the opportunity to earn money from the 'TUSMA'. TUSMA stands in German for the sentence: 'Call And Students Do Everything'. Common problems united all the students together. Wonderful friendships were made. After a few years break, we have met every two years for a professional excursion and to talk about old memories. From 1956 - 1958 In 1956 I finished both my study in Horticulture at the Technical University of West-Berlin and training as a technical assistant at the Institute for Genetics and Breeding at the same University. The training was supposed to be a jumping-board to an appointment. My fellow-student Gertraud Lemke had the same training. As Professor Von Sengbusch had promised me that I could start in January 1957 to breed mushrooms, Professor Kappert, Director of the Berlin Institute, organized another short training course for me in a microbiological laboratory. Later, I have realized how important this additional training was and I am still grateful to Kappert for his support. In Berlin I was also helped by Professor Riethus, our teacher in vegetable growing. Guided by him, my fellow-student Hans-Joachim Tschierpe graduated on the role of C02 in mushroom growing (Tschierpe, 1959). Riethus organized a visit for me to a mushroom farm. Of course, the owner of the farm refused to show his spawn laboratory. This should remain a secret. Professor Dr Reinhold Von Sengbush, director of the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding in Hamburg When I started in January 1957 with my work, Von Sengbusch was already a famous plant breeder, from whom I could learn a lot. In 1928 he had developed sweet lupin (Von Sengbusch, 1931), which made it possible to use lupin as fodder.

What is a mushroom? A mushroom is actually the fruiting structure of a fungus. The fungus is simply a net of thread-like fibers, called a mycelium, growing in soil, wood or decaying organic matter. Most mushrooms are edible and highly delicious. Others are not edible, and the rest are deadly poisonous. Wild Mushrooms Poisonous Edible The function of a mushroom is to produce spores, which are the propagative structures of the fungus. Spore identification is the master key for mushroom classification. Basidiospores of Agaricus Spore print of Mycena Mushroom Groups 1.

Abstract: Mycoparasites cause heavy losses in commercial mushroom farms worldwide. The negative impact of fungal diseases such as dry bubble (Lecanicillium fungicola), cobweb (Cladobotryum spp.), wet bubble (Mycogone perniciosa), and green mold (Trichoderma spp.) constrains yield and harvest quality while reducing the cropping surface or damaging basidiomes. Currently, in order to fight fungal diseases, preventive measurements consist of applying intensive cleaning during cropping and by the end of the crop cycle, together with the application of selective active substances with proved fungicidal action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the redundant application of the same fungicides has been conducted to the occurrence of resistant strains, hence, reviewing reported evidence of resistance occurrence and introducing unconventional treatments is worthy to pave the way towards Citation: Gea, F.J.; Navarro, M.J.; Santos, M.; Diánez, F.; Carrasco, J.
