“…Most of the mushrooms are rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly, B complex vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, pridoxine, pantotene acid, nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, folic acid, and cobalamin); as well as ergosterol and biotin, vitamin A in fresh and dry milky white mushrooms have been reported to be 0.35 mg and 0.275mg per g respectively ( Table 4 ) [ 46 ]. Water soluble vitamin C (a free radical scavenger and a well-known antioxidant and inhibitor of lipid peroxidation [LPO]) has been reported in fresh and dry milky white mushrooms (1.03 and 0.4mg/100 g, respectively) [ 42 ]. Similarly, vitamin E (tocopherol), an antioxidant that protects membranes, lipids and lipoproteins [ 43 ] has also been reported in fresh and dry milky white mushroom samples (2.8 mg/g and 0.80 mg/g, respectively).…”

A compressive description of tropical milky white mushroom (Calocybe indica P&C var. APK2) is provided in this review. This mushroom variety was first identified in the eastern Indian state of West Bengal and can be cultivated on a wide variety of substrates, at a high temperature range (30~38℃). However, no commercial cultivation was made until 1998. Krishnamoorthy 1997 rediscovered the fungus from Tamil Nadu, India and standardized the commercial production techniques for the first time in the world. This edible mushroom has a long shelf life (5~7 days) compared to other commercially available counterparts. A comprehensive and critical review on physiological and nutritional requirements viz., pH, temperature, carbon to nitrogen ratio, best carbon source, best nitrogen source, growth period, growth promoters for mycelia biomass production; substrate preparation; spawn inoculation; different supplementation and casing requirements to increase the yield of mushrooms has been outlined. Innovative and inexpensive methods developed to commercially cultivate milky white mushrooms on different lignocellulosic biomass is also described in this review. The composition profiles of milky white mushroom, its mineral contents and non-enzymatic antioxidants are provided in comparison with button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) and oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus). Antioxidant assay results using methanol extract of milky white mushroom has been provided along with the information about the compounds that are responsible for flavor profile both in fresh and dry mushrooms. Milky white mushroom extracts are known to have anti-hyperglycemic effect and anti-lipid peroxidation effect. The advantage of growing at elevated temperature creates newer avenues to explore milky white mushroom cultivation economically around the world, especially, in humid tropical and sub-tropical zones. Because of its incomparable productivity and shelf life to any other cultivated mushrooms in the world, milky white mushroom could play an important role in satisfying the growing market demands for edible mushrooms in the near future.

“…GSH can be regenerated from GSSG by the enzyme glutathione reductase [ 47 ]. The GSH is essential for protein and DNA synthesis, regulation of enzyme activities and protection against free radicals [ 42 ]. Presence of GSH in fresh and dry milky white mushroom samples were found to be 0.15 and 0.025 nmole/g respectively.…”

“…Oyster mushrooms are soft in nature due to the high moisture content at a young stage but tend to lose moisture with maturity (Prakash et al 2011). Mushroom fungi are regarded as a good source of protein, with high vitamins and lower calories, and free from cholesterol (Selvi et al 2007). Generally, no growing medium was superior to the other substrates in relation to chemical composition.…”

“…Mushrooms are a group of fungi with good source of high quality proteins, rich in vitamins and minerals and high quality proteins, rich in vitamins and minerals and low calorie and cholesterol free. 40 Both fresh and dry fruit bodies possess non-enzymatic antioxidant activities, but the maximum activities were found in case of fresh fruit bodies. So in order to get maximum of these activities, these fruit bodies should be stored in cold condition.…”

The investigation studied effect of residues of agriculture wastes by using polyethylene bag wall technique on Pleurotus colomninus L. srain 99 yield and their quality during both successive seasons of 2013/2014 and 2014/2015. The results indicated that different substrate formulas such as clover straw, wheat straw, sawdust, corn cob, soybean straw and rice straw gave significant differences characteristics of fruiting bodies, yield, biological efficiency, nutritional composition and mineral contents. The highest number counted fruit/bag was obtained from rice (14 and14.33 fruit/ bag) and wheat straw (14 and 13.33fruit/bag) in both seasons respectively. However, the elevated yield weight (288.10 and317.33g/bag and biological efficiency (82.26 and 90.63%) was found from soybean straw in both seasons respectively. The six substrates exhibited the suitable cultivation media and their effectiveness on physical characteristics such as stalk length, stalk diameter and cap diameter. Highest content of nitrogen (2.50 and 2.57g/100g) phosphorus (2.50 and 2.57g/100g) potassium (2.54 and 2.63g/100g) was achieved from clover straw in both seasons respectively. While the elevated contents of protein (7.41 and 7.24g/100g), carbohydrates (31.40 and 33.34g/100g) and energy (158.17 and165.91) obtained from soybean straw in both season respectively. Wheat straw substrate gave an increment fat (0.42 and 0.42g/100g) and fiber content (5.42 and 5.60g/100g in both season respectively, on the other side corn cob substrate gave the highest ash content (9.11 and 9.30g/100g in both seasons respectively. The raw and spent substrates were analyzed for their nutritional value composition. Citation: Salama ANA, Abdou AAK, Helaly AA, et al.
