A Review on Benefits, Cultivation and Biodiversity of Macrofungi

Abstract

Worldwide, macrofungi production as well as their economic value have been rising steadily. Due to their multiple health advantages and abundance of nutrients, functional foods, dietary supplements, and traditional medicines made from macrofungi are becoming more and more popular However, only a few bioactive macrofungus-derived products have been made commercially available. As a result, it is imperative to create a practical, high-yield macrofungus cultivation method to meet demand and customer expectations. There is an urgent need for efficient solutions to the problem because most macrofungal resources have not yet been properly researched, implemented and because macrofungi are varied with difficult and highly changeable development circumstances. This review is of great importance as it comprehensively state the cultivation strategies , current developments in the production of newly discovered bioactive components of Macrofungi .Furthermore, the creation of macrofungal foods is explored in order to change the nutritional value of food and its quality attributes.
