Developments in breeding of Agaricus bisporus var. bisporus: progress made and technical and legal hurdles to take

Abstract: True breeding of button mushrooms has hardly been done in the last decades, despite this species being one of the most cultivated mushrooms worldwide. Research done in the last 20 years has identified and characterised new germplasm and improved our understanding of the genetic base for some traits. A substantial collection of wild-collected strains is now available and partly characterised for a number of important traits such as disease resistance and yield. Most of the variations found in a number of import… Show more

“…Agaricus bisporus , commonly known as button mushroom or white mushroom, is one of the most popular edible mushroom species and widely cultivated all over the world, especially in Europe, North America, China and Australasia 1,2 . In European countries, commercial production of A. bisporus is cultivated on a composted mixture based on wheat straw, horse or chicken manure, gypsum, and water 3,4 .…”

“…Despite a few beneficial traits such as resistance to some diseases 2,3 , the average quality of var. burnettii strains is poor 4 . Especially the production of abundant numbers of small mushrooms that show a quick maturation (cap opening) and asymmetric caps are considered as poor quality.…”

“…A. bisporus mating is determined by an unifactorial mating type system [ 84 ], although there are reports of monokaryotic fruiting [ 85 ]. Commercial strains of A. bisporus are exclusively of the bisporus variety which produces spores containing 2 nuclei of opposite mating type and which are immediately capable of forming fruiting bosdies after germinating and establisment of vegetative mycelium, provided that the environmental cues are allowing it [ 86 ]. Fruiting is induced by lowering the levels of carbon dioxide and the temperature, relative humidity and speed of air circulation in a growing room.…”
