About ten species are commercially Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of edible macrofungi cultivated. Oyster mushroom has been regarded as a popular and commonly belonging to Basidiomycotina and rarely to edible mushroom essentially owing to its easy cultivation procedures within a wide range of temperatures (15-30°C). macrofungus with distinctive fruiting body which can be either They can be cultivated on different varieties of substrates like Ascomycotina.

  • Optimization of Agro-Residues As Substrates for Pleurotus
    Wu et al. AMB Expr (2019) 9:184 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13568-019-0907-1 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Optimization of agro-residues as substrates for Pleurotus pulmonarius production Nan Wu1†, Fenghua Tian1†, Odeshnee Moodley1, Bing Song1, Chuanwen Jia1, Jianqiang Ye2, Ruina Lv1, Zhi Qin3 and Changtian Li1* Abstract The “replacing wood by grass” project can partially resolve the confict between mushroom production and balancing the ecosystem, while promoting agricultural economic sustainability. Pleurotus pulmonarius is an economically impor- tant edible and medicinal mushroom, which is traditionally produced using a substrate consisting of sawdust and cottonseed hulls, supplemented with wheat bran. A simplex lattice design was applied to systemically optimize the cultivation of P. pulmonarius using agro-residues as the main substrate to replace sawdust and cottonseed hulls. The efects of difering amounts of wheat straw, corn straw, and soybean straw on the variables of yield, mycelial growth rate, stipe length, pileus length, pileus width, and time to harvest were demonstrated. Results indicated that a mix of wheat straw, corn straw, and soybean straw may have signifcantly positive efects on each of these variables. The high yield comprehensive formula was then optimized to include 40.4% wheat straw, 20.3% corn straw, 18.3% soybean straw, combined with 20.0% wheat bran, and 1.0% light CaCO3 (C/N 42.50). The biological efciency was 15.2% greater than that of the control. Most encouraging was the indication= that the high yield comprehensive formula may shorten the time to reach the reproductive stage by 6 days, compared with the control.

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 genus Pleurotus is a cosmopolitan group of mushrooms with high nutritional value and therapeutic properties, besides a wide array of biotechnological and environmental applications. Scope and approach: The present report aims to provide a critical review on aspects related to chemical compounds isolated from the genus Pleurotus with possible biotechnological, nutritional and therapeutic uses. Investigations on the genus have immensely accelerated during the last ten years, so that only reports published after 2005 have been considered. Key findings and conclusions: The most important Pleurotus species cultivated in large scale are P. ostreatus and P. pulmonarius. However, more than 200 species have already been investigated to various degrees. Both basidiomata and mycelia of Pleurotus are a great renewable and easily accessible source of functional foods/nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals with antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti- inflammatory, antitumor and immunomodulatory effects.

In this study, we ex- amined their expression profiles in different fungal strains under different culture conditions (submerged and solid cultures) Downloaded from and in the presence of a wheat straw extract, which was used as an inducer of the laccase gene family. We used a reverse tran- scription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR)-based approach and focused on determining the reaction parameters (in particular, the reference gene set for the normalization and reaction efficiency determinations) used to achieve an accurate estimation of the relative gene expression values. The results suggested that (i) laccase gene transcription is upregulated in the induced submerged fermentation (iSmF) cultures but downregulated in the solid fermentation (SSF) cultures, (ii) the Lacc2 and Lacc10 genes are the main sources of laccase activity in the iSmF cultures upon induction with water-soluble wheat straw extracts, and (iii) an addi- tional, as-yet-uncharacterized activity (Unk1) is specifically induced in SSF cultures that complements the activity of Lacc2 and Lacc10.

  • Bioactive Compounds and Medicinal Properties of Oyster Mushrooms (Pleurotus Sp.)
    FOLIA HORTICULTURAE Folia Hort. 30(2), 2018, 191-201 Published by the Polish Society DOI: 10.2478/fhort-2018-0012 for Horticultural Science since 1989 REVIEW Open access www.foliahort.ogr.ur.krakow.pl Bioactive compounds and medicinal properties of Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus sp.) Iwona Golak-Siwulska, Alina Kałużewicz*, Tomasz Spiżewski, Marek Siwulski, Krzysztof Sobieralski Department of Vegetable Crops Faculty of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture, Poznań University of Life Sciences Dąbrowskiego 159, Poznań, Poland ABSTRACT There are about 40 species in the Pleurotus genus, including those with high economic significance, i.e. P. ostreatus and P. pulmonarius. The fruiting bodies of oyster mushrooms are of high nutritional and health- promoting value. In addition, many species belonging to the Pleurotus genus have been used as sources of substances with documented medicinal properties, such as high-molecular weight bioactive compounds (polysaccharides, peptides and proteins) and low-molecular weight compounds (terpenoids, fatty acid esters and polyphenols). The bioactive substances contained in the mycelium and fruiting bodies of Pleurotus species exhibit immunostimulatory, anti-neoplastic, anti-diabetic, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-oxidative properties. Their multidirectional positive influence on the human organism is the result of interaction of bioactive substances. Extracts from individual Pleurotus species can be used for the production of dietary supplements increasing the organism’s immunity.

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.
