Other symptoms may include brown, light brown, or gray discolorations on the cap or the stipe of the mushroom. Infection by L. fungicola does not decrease the weight of the mushroom crop, but has the potential to decrease the total number of mushrooms produced. [3] Therefore, dry bubble is thought of mainly as a cosmetic disease.
PSK is a protein polysaccharide consisting of a beta-glucan β-1,4 main chain with β-1,3 and β-1,6 side chains. The approximate molecular weight of PSK is 100,000 Da, and the protein component is reported at the β-1,6 side chain. [10] PSK is isolated from the "CM-101" strain of Trametes versicolor.

You can naturally find it in foods, but the list is pretty limited. Some vitamin-D-rich foods include fatty fish (like salmon and tuna), beef, eggs, cheese, mushrooms and fortified cereals. The ...
Fungi cause the majority of plant diseases, which in turn cause serious economic losses. Sometimes, as in the Great Irish Famine of 1845–1849, fungal diseases of plants, in this case potato blight caused by Phytophthora, result in large-scale human suffering. Fungi are similarly the main cause of economic losses of timber in buildings.
Fungal infection, also known as mycosis, is a disease caused by fungi. [5] [13] Different types are traditionally divided according to the part of the body affected; superficial, subcutaneous, and systemic.
The other primary mycotoxin groups found in mushrooms include: orellanine, monomethylhydrazine, disulfiram-like, hallucinogenic indoles, muscarinic, isoxazole, and gastrointestinal (GI)-specific irritants. [28] The bulk of this article is about mycotoxins that are found in microfungi other than poisons from mushrooms or macroscopic fungi. [21]
Mushroom motifs now decorate all kinds of things: tea towels, toddlers’ sweaters, table lamps. But when interest extends beyond mushroom stuffies to the real stuff, people really need to be careful.
