Journal of Applied and Natural Science, 13(1): 204 - 209. https://doi.org/10.31018/jans.v13i1.2547 Abstract Mushroom cultivation is an economical biotechnological process for the conversion of various unused lignocellulosic wastes into protein rich food. The present study was conducted to assess the suitability of three different cereal grains viz., bajra (Pennisetum glaucum L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) for spawn production of Macrocybe gigantea (Massee) Pegler & Lod. and further its cultivation on two agrowastes (wheat straw and paddy straw) for assessing biological efficacy. It was observed that among the three cereal grains tested, bajra grains took significantly (P˂0.05) less time for spawn development. Moreover, a minimum period of spawn run (16.3 days), highest sporophore yield (343.6g/500g of dry substrate) and biological efficiency (68.7%) were also recorded from substrate bags inoculated with bajra grain spawn. These results sug- gest the use of bajra grain spawn for quick and successful cultivation of M. gigantea. INTRODUCTION emphasis is more on the temperate mushroom, Agari- cus bisporus.

Schmidt Received: 6 November 2020; Accepted: 17 December 2020; Published: 18 December 2020 Abstract: Mushrooms have been used for millennia as cancer remedies. Our goal was to screen several mushroom species from the rainforests of Costa Rica, looking for new antitumor molecules. Mushroom extracts were screened using two human cell lines: A549 (lung adenocarcinoma) and NL20 (immortalized normal lung epithelium). Extracts able to kill tumor cells while preserving non-tumor cells were considered “anticancer”. The mushroom with better properties was Macrocybe titans. Positive extracts were fractionated further and tested for biological activity on the cell lines. The chemical structure of the active compound was partially elucidated through nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, and other ancillary techniques. Chemical analysis showed that the active molecule was a triglyceride containing oleic acid, palmitic acid, and a more complex fatty acid with two double bonds. The synthesis of all possible triglycerides and biological testing identified the natural compound, which was named Macrocybin.

Mycosphere 7(4), 525–530, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/7/4/11 Abstract An updated phylogeny of Macrocybe, a rare pantropical genus, is presented, and new insights regarding the distribution of M. gigantea are given. At the end of last century, this genus was segregated from Tricholoma on morphological and molecular data yet it is still being treated under Tricholoma. In the phylogenetic analysis based on ITS-rDNA, we observed the monophyletic lineage of Macrocybe from the closely related genera Calocybe and Tricholoma. Six collections of M. gigantea, a syntype, re-collected and sequenced from Pakistan, clustered with Chinese and Indian collections which are available in GenBank under Tricholoma giganteum, an older name. The purpose of this work is to support Macrocybe as a separate genus from Tricholoma and Calocybe using ITS-rDNA based phylogeny. Key words – Calocybe – macro fungi – Siderophilous granulation – Tricholoma Introduction Macrocybe Pegler & Lodge accommodates those tricholomatoid species which have large, fleshy, white, cream to grayish ochraceous, convex, umbonate to depressed basidiomata.

Extensive field survey in different locations of Dakshin Dinajpur district of West Bengal was conducted from March, 2007 to March, 2010 and macrofungi were collected for preparation of a taxonomic profile of macrofungi of the region. From the study area 88 different types of macrofungi were collected. Among these macrofungi 74 collections were identified up to the species level and 8 collections were identified up to the genus level whereas 6 collections remain unidentified. Among all the identified macrofungal population 9% members belong to Ascomycota and 91% members belong to Basidiomycota group. In this present study, a total of 82 macrofungal species in 60 genera belonging to 30 families in 12 orders were first time recorded from this region. Among all the identified macrofungi 17 species are edible whereas 4 species are poisonous. KEYWORDS: Edible, diversity, fungi, mushroom, poisonous.

The base material In search of suitable substrate for production of (spawn medium) inoculated with a small bit of 10 days old Macrocybe gigantea (Giant mushroom) locally available culture, under aseptic condition and incubated at 30+1oC different agro-waste like wheat (Triticum aestivum) straw for 20 days. The substrate used for experimentation was (WS), chickpea (Cicer arietinum) straw (CS), Lentil (Lens locally available different agro-wastes i.e. wheat (Triticum culinaris) straw (LS), Lawngrass (Zoysia tenuifolia) dry, aestivum) straw, chickpea (Cicer arietinum) straw, lentil WS+CS (1:1w/w), WS+LS (1:1w/w), CS+LS (1:1 w/w) and (Lens culinaris) straw, lawngrass (Zoysia tenuifolia), WS+CS+LS (1:1:1 w/w) were evaluated for the yield WS+CS (1:1w/w), WS+LS (1:1w/w), CS+LS (1:1 w/w) and performance. The spawn run completed in 21-24 days in WS+CS+LS (1:1:1 w/w). The substrates were soaked in all the substrate while pinheads appears 14-16 days after water for 18hrs. then after draining the excess water allow casing of the bags. The substrate wheat straw +lentil straw the substrate to dry for 2-3 hrs to achieve 68+2% moisture (1:1 w/w) was found the best by producing maximum yield level and calcium carbonate (CaCO3­) was added to the 5210g/6400g dry substrate (81.41% BE) followed by substrate @ 1% on dry weight basis to adjust the pH of the Lentil straw alone with yield of 5180g/6400g dry substrate substrate in between 8-8.5.

AGRADECIMENTOS “Agradecer é admitir que houve um momento em que se precisou de alguém; é reconhecer que o homem, jamais poderá lograr para si o dom de ser autossuficiente. Ninguém nem nada cresce sozinho: sempre é preciso um olhar de apoio, uma palavra de incentivo, um gesto de compreensão, uma atitude de amor” (AUTOR DESCONHECIDO).

Title : tlacrocvbe titans a spectacular fungus present in Costa Rica, Central America. Summary :Nest data on the Tricholomataceae Macrocvbe titans is included in this article . Descnptions of the material collected in Costa Rica, with comments on its macro- and micro- morpholo_-v. and the relationships with close species is given . Rev words : Tricholomataceaec tlacrocrbe. ecology, taxonomy, distribution, Costa Rica, Central America . INTRODUCCIÓN La impresión que se percibe cuando se observa este hongo por primera vez es la de que estamos ante un representante gigante del género Tricholoma (Fr.) Staude afín a Calocvbe Künher ex Donk. Su aspecto, robusto, color blanco crémeo, olor inten- so de harina fresca, recien molida y sabor agradable dulzaino de su carne nos indu- cen a pensar en ese sentido . Su estudio detenido nos revela la presencia de hifas con fibulas, hecho que le sepa- ra de Tricholoma, esporas cianófilas, no amiloides y una biología no ectomicorrízi- ca : todo lo cual separa esta especie de los géneros Calocybe y Lyophyllum, que pre- sentan gránulos siderófilos en los basidios, de acuerdo con el concepto de SINGER ( 1986). No obstante.
