Box 536, Njoro 20115, Kenya. * Corresponding author; E-mail: [email protected] ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This work was supported financially by Commonwealth Scholarship Commission (CSC) and the National Commission for Science, Technology and Innovation (NACOSTI), Kenya. ABSTRACT C. cinerea (Bull) J. Schröt (Lyophyllaceae) is among the many edible mushrooms in Kenya and is also traditionally regarded as a complementary medicine for chronically-ill people. The use of these mushrooms in the East African prompted this investigation in which the phytochemistry and potential anti-cancer activity was studied. Chemical constituents of C. cinerea were isolated using chromatographic techniques and structures were determined using NMR spectroscopic methods. The NCI 60 human cancer cell line panel was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of the compounds isolated at 10µM. Three triterpenes, ergosta-7,22-dien-3β-ol (1), 5α,6α-epoxyergosta-8(14),22-dien-3β,7α-diol (2) and ergosta-7,22-dien-3β,5α,6β,-triol (3) and pentacyclic triterpenoids β-amyrin (4) were isolated. The compounds were found to possess moderate toxicity against most of the cancer cell lines. © 2017 International Formulae Group. All rights reserved. Keywords.

Accepted 2 January, 2014 Mushrooms are the higher fungi which have long been used for food and medicinal purposes. They have rich nutritional value with high protein content (up to 44.93%), vitamins, minerals, fibers, trace elements and low calories and lack cholesterol. There are 14,000 known species of mushrooms of which 2,000 are safe for human consumption and about 650 of these possess medicinal properties. Among the total known mushrooms, approximately 850 species are recorded from India. Many of them have been used in food and folk medicine for thousands of years. Mushrooms are also sources of bioactive substances including antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, anticancer, antitumour, anti-HIV and antidiabetic activities. Nutriceuticals and medicinal mushrooms have been used in human health development in India as food, medicine, minerals among others. The present review aims to update the current status of mushrooms diversity in India with their nutritional and medicinal potential as well as ethnomedicinal uses for different future prospects in pharmaceutical application. Key words: Mushroom diversity, nutritional value, therapeutic potential, bioactive compound. INTRODUCTION Mushroom is a general term used mainly for the fruiting unexamined mushrooms will be only 5%, implies that body of macrofungi (Ascomycota and Basidiomycota) there are 7,000 yet undiscovered species, which if and represents only a short reproductive stage in their life discovered will be provided with the possible benefit to cycle (Das, 2010). -
2011 NAMA Toxicology Committee Report North American Mushroom Poisonings
2011 NAMA Toxicology Committee Report North American Mushroom Poisonings By Michael W. Beug, PhD, Chair NAMA Toxicology Committee P.O. Box 116, Husum, WA 98623 email: [email protected] Abstract In 2011, for North America, the reports to NAMA included 117 people seriously sickened by mushrooms. Thirteen cases involved ingestion of either “Destroying Angel” or “Death Cap” mushrooms in the genus Amanita. There was one death and two people needed a liver transplant after ingestion of a “Destroying Angel”, presumably Amanita bisporigera. Three cases, including one death, involved amatoxins from a Galerina , presumably Galerina marginata . There was one case of kidney damage after consumption of Amanita smithiana and a second case of kidney damage involving two women who consumed an unknown mushroom . The year was noteworthy for the large number of reports of problems from consumption of morels with 22 cases (18.8% of the total). A number of problems were the result of people consuming morels raw – but everyone recovered within 24 hours. The eighteen Chlorophyllum molybdites cases (15% of the total) were sometimes quite severe and often required hospitalization. While Gyromitra cases numbered only nine (eight Gyromitra esculenta and one Gyromitra montana ), four required long hospitalizations as a result of liver damage. In the Northeast, newspaper reports mention long hospitalizations from some of the mushrooms known to cause gastro- intestinal distress, but we have no information on those cases. Twenty seven reports of dogs ill after eating mushrooms included fourteen deaths of the dogs. The dog deaths were mostly attributed to ingestion of mushrooms containing α-amanitin, including probable Amanita bisporigera, Amanita ocreata and Amanita phalloides , though in at least one case the possibility of a deadly Galerina cannot be ruled out. -

Production of Paddy Straw Mushroom (Vovlariella Volvacea): Paddy Straw Mushroom Is an Edible Mushroom of the Tropics and Subtropics
1 Production of paddy straw mushroom (Vovlariella volvacea): Paddy straw mushroom is an edible mushroom of the tropics and subtropics. It was first cultivated in China as early as in 1822. Around 1932-35, the straw mushroom was introduced into Philippines, Malaysia, and other South-East Asian countries by overseas Chinese. In India this mushroom was first cultivated in early 1940’s. In India, 19 edible species of Volvariella have been recorded but cultivation methods have been devised for three of them only viz; V. volvacea, V. esculenta (Mass) and V. diplasia. Volvariella volvacea is deep grey in colour and number of fruiting body is less per bed whereas V. diplasia is whitish or ashy in colour and, fruiting body is more with smaller size. Paddy straw mushroom (Volvariella spp.) also called ‘straw mushroom’ is a fungus of the tropics and subtropics and has been cultivated for many years in India. Paddy straw mushroom is also known as “warm mushroom” as it grows at relatively high temperature. It is a fast growing mushroom and under favorable growing conditions total crop cycle is completed within 4-5 weeks time. This mushroom can use wide range of cellulosic materials and the C: N ratio needed is 40 to 60, quite high in comparison to other cultivated mushrooms. It can be grown quite quickly and easily on uncomposted substrates such as paddy straw and cotton waste or other cellulosic organic waste materials. Several species of Volvariella have reportedly been grown for food, but only three species of the straw mushroom i.e. Volvariella volvacea, Volvariella esculanta and Volvariella diplasia are cultivated artificially. -
Clavaria Miniata) Flame Fungus
A LITTLE BOOK OF CORALS Pat and Ed Grey Reiner Richter Ramariopsis pulchella Revision 3 (2018) Ramaria flaccida De’ana Williams 2 Introduction This booklet illustrates some of the Coral Fungi found either on FNCV Fungi Forays or recorded for Victoria. Coral fungi are noted for their exquisite colouring – every shade of white, cream, grey, blue, purple, orange and red - found across the range of species. Each description page consists of a photo (usually taken by a group member) and brief notes to aid identification. The corals are listed alphabetically by genus and species and a common name has been included. In this revision five species have been added: Clavicorona taxophila, Clavulina tasmanica, Ramaria pyrispora, R. watlingii and R. samuelsii. A field description sheet is available as a separate PDF. Coral Fungi are so-called because the fruit-bodies resemble marine corals. Some have intricate branching, while others are bushier with ‘florets’ like a cauliflower or broccolini. They also include those species that have simple, club-shaped fruit-bodies. Unlike fungi such as Agarics that have gills and Boletes that have pores, the fertile surface bearing the spores of coral fungi is the external surface of the upper branches. All species of Artomyces, Clavaria, Clavulina, Clavulinopsis, Multiclavula, Ramariopsis and Tremellodendropsis have a white spore print while Ramaria species have a yellow to yellow-brown spore print, which is sometimes seen when the mature spores dust the branches. Most species grow on the ground except for two Peppery Corals Artomyces species and Ramaria ochracea that grow on fallen wood. Ramaria filicicola grows on woody litter and Tree-fern stems.
