Download or read book Mushroom Biology Concise Basics And Current Developments written by Shu-ting Chang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1997-06-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discipline of Mushroom Biology, created by the authors of this book, has now been legitimized by references in the scientific literature and by two International Conferences devoted to the subject. This book sets the parameters of Mushroom Biology in a concise manner and also emphasizes trends and points out future directions which will lead to a greater utilization of mushrooms and mushroom products. The discipline was established to bring together persons who have in common scientific or commercial interests involving mushrooms. The authors' definition of mushroom is more broad than the usual mycological definition so that macrofungi other than Basidiomycetes can be included. Mushrooms may be edible, non-edible, poisonous or medicinal species, with hypogeous or epigeous fruiting bodies, and their texture may be fleshy or non-fleshy.Many aspects of Mushroom Biology are presented, including nutritional and medicinal uses, the role of mushrooms in bioremediation, biotechnology, and in the bioconversion of waste organic materials into forms that can enter the major nutrient cycles.Basic scientific studies involving mushroom species are also considered with an emphasis on genetics and breeding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book besides outlining the biological features of three important cultivated edible species viz., Agaricus bisporus, Volviariella volvacea and Pleurotus; provides their state-of-theart cultivation techniques, including infrastructural needs and crop management practices. The most important feature of the book, which is not available in other books of similar nature, is the chapter on Molecular Biology, introducing a highly important emerging discipline, to both the laymen and subject matter specialists. Its relevance to the improvement of mushroom crops and methodology followed therein (including genetic engineering), is elaborated in the text. The role of molecular techniques for taxonomic determinations is also highlighted for some species.

Download or read book Examining the Genetics of Mushroom Development in the Cultivated Edible Mushroom Flammulina Velutipes written by Thomas M. Roehl and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flammulina velutipes is a cultivated edible mushroom with two distinct growth forms: highly pigmented and umbrella-shaped in the wild, but pale and thread-like under cultivation conditions. Recent studies using F. velutipes to study gene expression changes during mushroom development have largely ignored tissue-level differences and the normal (wild) growth form. The present study extracted and sequenced F. velutipes mRNA from four tissues (mycelium, stipe, pileus, and gills) at four growth stages (primordia, young mushrooms, mature cultivated mushrooms, and mature normal mushrooms) to assemble a transcriptome of 20,909 transcripts from 14,416 potential genes. Analyses identified 2,183 differentially expressed genes (q
