FUNGAL CONTAMINANTS THREAT OYSTER MUSHROOM (Pleurotus Ostreatus (Jacq FUNGAL CONTAMINANTS THREAT OYSTER MUSHROOM (Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq. Ex Fr) Kummer) CULTIVATION I Made Sudarma*, Ni Made Puspawati dan Gede Wijana* *Department of Agroetechnology, Faculty of Agriculture, Udayana University, Jl. PB. Sudirman Denpasar-Bali. E-mail: [email protected]. HP. 08123639103 ABSTRACT One of the causes of failure of the cultivation of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq. Ex Fr) Kummer) is still much contamination baglog inhibit growth and cause failure of oyster mushroom production. For that study was conducted to determine fungal contaminants in the baglog media and inhibiting ability against oyster mushrooms in vitro. Research carried out by the observation methods, sampling randomly contaminated baglog 10-20% of the amount of contaminated baglog, repeated 3 times. Study to be implemented in venture oyster mushroom address: Jl. Siulan gang Zella no. 7 Denpasar, from April to August 2014. The results showed that air-borne fungus could potentially cause failure of oyster mushroom cultivation. The highest prevalence was found in Fusarium spp. (25.6%), while the highest inhibition was found in Mucor spp.(94.7±8.5). Fungal contaminants originating from baglog, the most dominant with the highest prevalence was Trichoderma spp (35.71%). This fungus was very dangerous for the survival of oyster mushroom cultivation. Keywords: Oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq. ex Fr) Kummer), inhibiting ability, and the prevalence of fungal contaminants. INTRODUCTION Development of oyster mushroom cultivation particularly in Bali received threats by a number of fungal contaminants. Fungal contaminants can originate from the air and sawdust media. Green mold caused by Trichoderma spp. is a major disease that is found in oyster mushroom (Kredic et al., 2010). Fungus isolated and characterized from compost include such as Aspergillus, Trichoderma, Mucor, Penicillium, Alternaria, Cladosporium, Monilia, Helminthosporium, Coccidioides, and Scedosporium (Ashraf et al., 2007). In Chiapas, Mexico, the most common contaminants during spwan phase were: Streptomyces sp., Penicillium sp. Aspergillus ochraceus, A. flavus, Cunninghamella sp., and Trichoderma viride. During the incubation phase Monilia sp. and T. viride were found. During fructification phase the most abundant contaminants were: Poronia sp. and Coprinus sp. (Lopez-Arevalo et al., 1996). In Indonesia, fungal contaminants were found 1 to inhibited the growth of oyster mushroom was Neurospora spp., Trichoderma spp., Mucor spp., and Penicillium spp. (Anggrianto, 2012). The quality of the growing media (compost), the number of spores in the air, and the phase of growth of oyster mushrooms determine the severity of contamination on baglog (Anastasi et al., 2005). The density of spores in the air , accompanied by a lot of opportunities for contamination causing the failure of oyster mushroom cultivation. Fungi contaminants that have been known to cause fungal growth failure of oyster mushroom was: Neorospora spp., Trichoderma spp., Mucor spp., and Penicillium spp (Anggrianto, 2012). Fungal contaminants on the media type and inhibiting ability to the growth of oyster mushroom in vitro until now unknown, it is necessary for in-depth studies to answer the problems mentioned above. MATERIALS AND METHOD The place and time study The study was conducted in Breeding and Development Company Oyster Mushrooms with address Siulan street, Zella alley No. 7 Denpasar. The application time at April 2014 until November , 2014. Making media baglog The composition of the media used were wood dust : bran : corn : limestone (CaCO3 ) : NPK at a ratio of 100 : 10 : 5 : 2.5 : 1. The process of making was, (1) All the ingredients are mixed while adding water. The amount of water that was adapted to medium compact when clenched does not decompose and when it does not remove the water squeezed . (2) A total of 0.5 kg of medium then fed into a heat resistant plastic the size of 1 kg and then pressing and tie it closed with the use of rubber slipping cotton on top. (3) Sterilization 5 hours . After sterile, store in a clean room . (4) After a cold was inoculated with seedling (F3). F3 seedlings F3 seedling of oyster mushroom were taken from the Breeding and Development Company Oyster Mushrooms with address Siulan street and Zella alley No. 7 Denpasar. F3 seedlings using material from corn that is inserted in a bottle of beer, and it was inoculated with F2 seeds, once the seeds are fully grown mycelium , then used as F3 seedling. 2 Inhibition test of fungi contaminants against Oyster Mushrooms Each fungus contaminants tested for inhibitory against the growth of oyster mushroom with a dual culture technique. Percent inhibition can be calculated using the following formula (Dolar, 2001; Jayalal and Adikaram, 2007; Mojica-Marin et al., 2008): A – B % inhibition = x 100 A A = Oyster mushroom colony diameter in the control (mm) B = Oyster mushroom colony diameter in treated (mm). Study of air-borne fungi Study of air -borne fungus is done by placing 5 Petri dishes containing PDA (mixture of potatoes 200 g , 15 g sugar, 20 g in order to 1000 ml of distilled water) and livoploxasin (antibacterial antibiotics) with a concentration of 0.25 % (w/v). Five Petri dishes were placed openly at work ( where do the activity), and placed from 7:00 am to 13:00 noon ( note the average work activity during these hours ). Thereafter , the Petri dish was closed and incubated in a cabinet incubator for 2 days , until the fungus appear in Petri dishes , and counted the number of colonies. Furthermore , each colony was purified again by moving to a new Petri dishes containing PDA medium. Incubation of media in the dark at room temperature (27±2oC). Isolates were identified macroscopically after the age of 3 days to determine colony color and growth rates , and the identification of microscopically to determine the septa in hypha, forms spores / conidia and sporangiophore. Identification of fungi using reference books such as Samson et al, 1981; Pitt and Hocking, 1997; Barnett and Hunter, 1998; and Indrawati et al., 1999). Study of air-borne fungus done 3 times. Thereafter, air -borne fungi tested for inhibiting ability against oyster mushrooms with the formula as mentioned above. Study of fungal contaminants derived from baglog A total of 20% baglog as samples taken from 50 baglog contaminated, and repeated 3 times. Baglog contaminated characterized by a change in color at the top of baglog, This section was taken (0.1 g), then placed in Petri dishes containing PDA (mixture of potatoes 200 g, 15 g sugar, 20 g in order to 1000 ml of distilled water) and livoploxasin (antibacterial antibiotics) with a concentration of 0.25% (w/v). Furthermore, isolates identified macroscopically after 3 days old. Fungi contaminants derived from baglog tested for inhibiting ability against oyster mushroom with the formula as mentioned above. 3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Prevalence of air-borne fungus and fungal contaminants derived from baglog The results of the capture of spores using Petri dishes with 5 replications obtained 24±2 cfu/a Petri dish. Air-borne fungi identification such as 10 isolates of Aspergillus sp., 7 isolates of Aspergillus niger, one isolate of Brachysporium sp., one isolate of Cunninghamella sp., 19 isolates of Fusarium sp., one isolate of Geotrichum sp., 8 isolates of Neurospora sp., 18 isolates of Mucor spp., 2 isolates of Penicillium sp., one isolate of Umbelopsis sp., 5 isolates of Stachybotrys sp., and one isolate of Trichoderma sp.

Received 16 October, 2014; Accepted 12 December, 2014 This review shows the biotechnological potential of oyster mushrooms with lignocellulosic biomass. The bioprocessing of plant byproducts using Pleurotus species provides numerous value-added products, such as basidiocarps, animal feed, enzymes, and other useful materials. The biodegradation and bioconversion of agro wastes (lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose) could have vital implication in cleaning our environment. The bioprocessing of lignin depends on the potent lignocellulolytic enzymes such as phenol oxidases (laccase) or heme peroxidases (lignin peroxidase (LiP), manganese peroxidase (MnP) and versatile peroxidase) produced by the organism. The cellulose-hydrolysing enzymes (that is, cellulases) basically divided into endo-β-1,4-glucanase , exo-β-1,4-glucanase I and II, and β-glucosidase, they attack cellulose to release glucose, a monomers units from the cellobiose, while several enzymes acted on hemicellulose to give D-xylose from xylobiose. These enzymes have been produced by species of Pleurotus from lignocellulose and can also be used in several biotechnological applications, including detoxification, bioconversion, and bioremediation of resistant pollutants.

The main aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the antioxidant activities of methanolic extracts of mushroom mycelium of ten Pleurotus species by three different methods. The DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, chelating effect on ferrous ion and phenolic content of mycelial extract of ten edible mushrooms were analyzed. P. sajor-caju showed highest free radical scavenging activity (92.05 %) and reducing power (1.082 %) at 8 mg/ml concentration. P. citrinopileatus showed highest percentage of chelating effect on ferrous ion (90.66 %). The lowest EC50 value of free radical scavenging activity was found in P. sapidus which indicated strongest ability of the mycelial extract to act as DPPH radical scavenger. The lowest chelating effect on ferrous ion was noticed in P. sajor-caju but EC50 of reducing power was much lower than the synthetic antioxidant (BHT).

They display effective regulatory protein expressions which enhance and regulate their response and adaptation to a variety of triggers such as stress, hormones, light, chemicals and host factors. In our recent studies, we have shown that Pleurotus oyster fungi generate electrical potential impulses in the form of spike events as a result of their exposure to environmental, mechanical and chemical triggers, demonstrating that it is possible to discern the nature of stimuli from the fungi electrical responses. Harnessing the power of fungi sensing and intelligent capabilities, we explored the communication protocols of fungi as reporters of human chemical secretions such as hormones, addressing the question if fungi can sense human signals. We exposed Pleurotus oyster fungi to cortisol, directly applied to a surface of a hemp shavings substrate colonised by fungi, and recorded the electrical activity of fungi. The response of fungi to cortisol was also supplementary studied through the application of X-ray to identify changes in the fungi tissue, where receiving cortisol by the substrate can inhibit the flow of calcium and, in turn, reduce its physiological changes.

Bernardo; A. Pérez Cabo; C. García Mendoza Centro de Investigaciones Biológicas, CSIC, Ramiro de Maeztu 9, 28040 Madrid (Spain) The Verticillium fungicola mycoparasitism on Agaricus bisporus fruit bodies appears to be a complex process made up of successive steps in which the recognition and binding between complementary molecules, the A. bisporus fruit body lectin and the V. fungicola cell wall glucogalactomannan, have re- cently been demonstrated. P. ostreatus fruit bodies have been described as containing a lectin and also presenting the “dry bubble” or the Verticillium disease. The aim of the present work is to purify and characterize the P. ostreatus lectin and compare the properties of both lectins in an attempt to confirm if the specific glucogalactomannan-lectin recognition and binding is the necessary step for the V. fungicola mycoparasitism process in P. ostreatus. The characteristics and properties of the purified P. o s t r e a t u s lectin together with those also previously described by us on A. bisporus lectin show that, although both lectins present different chemical struc- tures, they behave very similarly in relation to their glucogalactomannan-binding, thus confirming the existence of the specific recognition and binding step in the Verticillium disease on P. ostreatus fruit bodies. 1.

AMB Expr (2018) 8:148 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13568-018-0661-9 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Molecular identifcation of some wild Nigerian mushrooms using internal transcribed spacer: polymerase chain reaction Mobolaji Adeniyi1,2, Yinka Titilawo3,4,5*, Anthonia Oluduro1, Olu Odeyemi1, Motebang Nakin4 and Anthony Ifeanyi Okoh5 Abstract Identifcation of fungal species based on morphological characteristics is tedious, complex, prone to errors, and thus cannot be completely relied upon. In this study, internal transcribed spacers (ITS 1 and 4)—polymerase chain reaction was employed to amplify DNA of 19 mushroom isolates collected at Environmental Pollution Science and Technology farm, Ilesa, Southwest Nigeria. The PCR amplifcation of ITS1 and 4 of the mushrooms isolates yielded approximately 850 bp. Amplicons obtained were sequenced and identifed using BLASTn in the NCBI. The BLASTn results revealed that Termitomyces aurantiacus (3), Tricholoma matsutake (8), Tricholoma robustum (2), P. ostreatus (4), Schizophyllum commune (1) and Pleurotus pulmonarius (1) were fully represented. Only Tricholoma matsutake (KT273371), Pleurotus pulmonarius (KY962469) and Tricholoma matsutake (AF438605) had 100% similarity with reference strain. However, the phylogenetic analysis of the isolates showed low genetic relatedness with reference strains. This study revealed the novelty of the mushroom strains and thus advocating the need for strict conservation measures and further investiga- tions on their potential benefts to mankind.

    Collection of Group Characteristics of Pleurotus Eryngii Using Machine Vision Yunsheng Wang1, Changzhao Wan1, Juan Yang1, Jianlin Chen1, Tao Yuan1, and Jingyin Zhao1,2,* 1 Technology & Engineering Research Center for Digital Agriculture, Shanghai Academy of Agriculture Sciences, Shanghai, P.R. China 201106 2 No.2901 Beidi Road, Shanghai, 201106, P.R. China, Tel.: +86-21-62204989 [email protected] Abstract. An information collection system which was used to group character- istics of pleurotus eryngii was introduced. The group characteristics of pleuro- tus eryngii were quantified using machine vision in order to inspect and control the pleurotus eryngii house environment by an automated system. Its main con- tents include the following: collection of pleurotus eryngii image; image proc- essing and pattern recognition. Finally, by analysing pleurotus eryngii image, the systems for group characteristics of pleurotus eryngii are proved to be greatly effective. Keywords: Pleurotus eryngii, Group characteristics, Machine vision, Collection. 1 Introduction World's edible fungi output reached 13 million tons at 2006, China is the largest pro- ducer of edible fungi, edible fungi production in China is the world's edible fungi pro- duction for more than 70%. Agricultural production in China, the sixth production of edible fungi, edible fungi have become the pillar industries in the agricultural econ- omy (Huang Chienchun, 2006; Lu Min, 2006). At present, the small-scale, extensive management production of edible fungi in China is still the main form, although this mode of production and low cost initial investment, but subject to natural risks and market risks is very weak, it is difficult to guarantee product quality, production efficiency is very low.
