Two kinds of mushrooms, Gumji (金芝; Ganoderma) and Soji, were described in old book of Samguksagi (History of the three kingdoms; B.C 57~A.D 668; written by Bu Sik Kim in 1145) in Korea-dynasty. Many kinds of mushrooms were also described in more than 17 kinds of old books during Chosun-dynasty (1392~1910) in Korea. Nowadays, mushroom cultivation has been increased through out the world last decade years. Production of mushrooms has also been increased 10-20% and many varieties have been cultivated. Similar trends were also observed in Korea. Approximately two hundred commercial strains of 37 species in mushrooms were developed and distributed to cultivators. Somatic hybrid variety of oyster mushroom 'Wonhyeong-neutari' were developed by protoplast fusion, and distributed to grower in 1989. The fruiting body yield index of somatic hybrids of Pleurotus ranged between 27 and 155 compared to parental values of 100 and 138. In addition, more diverse mushroom varieties such as Phellinus baumi, Auricularia spp., Pleurotus ferulae, Hericium erinaceus, Hypsizigus marmoreus, Grifola frondosa, Agrocybe aegerita and Pleurotus cornucopiae have been attempted to cultivate in small scale cultivation. Production of mushrooms as food was 190,111 metric tons valued at 800 billion Korean Won (one trillion won if include mushroom factory products; 1dollar = 1,040 Won) in 2011. Major cultivated species are Pleurotus ostreatus, Pleurotus eryngii, Flammulina velutipes, Lentinula edodes, Agaricus bisporus, and Ganoderma lucidum, which cover 90% of total production. Since mushroom export was initiated from 1960 to 1980, the export and import of mushrooms have been increased in Korea. Technology developed for liquid spawn production and automatic cultivation systems lead to the reduction of the production cost resulting in the increasement of mushroom export. However some species were imported because of high production cost for these mushrooms requiring the effective cultivation methods. Developing of effective post-harvest system will be also directly related to mushroom export. In academic area, RDA scientists have been conducting mushroom genome projects. One of the main results is the whole genome sequencing of Flammulina velutipes for molecular breeding. An electrophoretic karyotype of of F. velutipes was obtained using CHEF with 7 chromosomes, with a total genome size of approximately 26.7 Mb. The mususcript of the genome of F. velutipes was published in PLOS ONE this year. For medicinal mushrooms, we have been conducting the genome research on Cordyceps and its related species for developing functional foods using this mushroom. In 2013, Korea Food and Drug Administraion (KFDA) approved Cordyceps mushroom for its value as an immune booster.

A total of 12 strains of fluorescent Pseudomonas isolated from the cultivated mushrooms such as Agaricus bisporus and Pleurotus ostreatus were collected. They consisted of pathogenic Pseudomonas spp. and epiphytic Pseudomonas spp. of the cultivated mushroom. To analyze the phylogenetic relationship of these strains, ITS I region, the 16S-23S intergenic spacer region in the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) operon, was cloned and sequenced. The spacer regions of these strains were 495∼527 nucleotides in length and contained the genes encoding isoleucine-tRNA (tRNAIle) and alanine-tRNA (tRNAAla). The reciprocal homologies of each ITS I sequence among these strains were in the range of 84.2%∼98.8%. According to the analysis of ITS I sequences, the fluorescent Pseudomonas spp. were phylogenetically classified into three clusters. Cluster I consisted of Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. tolaasii, P. gingeri’, and P.‘reactans’(WLRO). Cluster II comprised Pseudomonas fluorescens biovar C and F. Cluster III composed P. agarici. Cluster I and II could be classified into P. fluorescens complex. P. agarici formed an independent taxon clearly separable from P. florescens complex.

Tests were performed on 232 bacterial strains (71 strains of Pseudomonas tolaasii and 161 white line reacting organisms, WLRO) isolated from cultivated mushrooms. As results, P. tolaasii was divided into 5 groups on the basis of the phenotypical characteristics for the strains, and group 3 was the major one including 48 (62%) out of the total 71 strains. WLRO were classified into 23 groups, and group 10 was the major group (65 strains, 30% of the total WLRO tested). A white line was well formed at 22$^{\circ}C$ and at 4 mm distance between P. tolaasii and WLRO colonies in their dual culture on Pseudomonas agar F medium within 36-hr incubation, but not formed at $25^{\circ}C$ even for 72-hr incubation. The morphological, cultural and biological properties of P. tolaasii group 3, and the main group of WLRO, group 10, were different only in the light of pathogenicity. Also group 2 of P. tolaasii had the characteristics similar to group 24 of WLRO which was pathogenic to cultivated mushrooms, suggesting the P. tollaasiii and WLRO strains may be the same species although their white line forming ability and pathogenicity were more or less different from one another. Subculture of the strains in P. tolaasii group 1 induced the variation of their pathogenicity, white line forming ability and utilization of sodium benzoate and sodium tartrate, and thus it can be inferred that they were converted to strains having the characteristics of group 3 or WLRO groups.

일반적으로 폐기 처분하거나 비료로 재활용하는 한약을 추출하고 남는 한약박을 발효하여 영양분으로 첨가하는 팰릿 대신 폐면과 섞어 균상배지로 사용하여 느타리버섯을 재배할 때 수확량과 저장성에 대한 연구를 하였다. 또한, 한약박은 불특정 한약재들이 섞여 있으므로 이로 인해 문제가 나타날 수도 있으므로 한약박의 성분이 느타리버섯으로 전이되는지 여부를 조사하였다. 한약박 70%나 100%에서 느타리버섯을 재배할 때 질병이 생겨 고사되는 버섯의 수도 적었고, 성장속도도 빨라서 수확량도 많았다. 폐면과 펠릿을 이용한 대조군과 한약박을 배지에서 재배한 처리군들의 HPLC chromatogram에 차이를 전혀 나타내지 않았고 지표물질로 사용한 glycyrrhizin이 전혀 검출되지 않았다. 즉, 한약박의 성분 자체가 그대로 전이되지는 않았고, 한약박에 함유된 성분을 영양소로 이용하여 버섯의 품질을 향상시켰다. 한약박을 70%나 100%를 사용한 배지에서 재배된 느타리버섯의 저장성이 향상되어 저장기간 동안 중량 감소가 가장 적었고, 갓과 자루의 경도의 저하도 가장 적었다. 그러나 외관의 품질을 나타내 주는 색도의 변화는 배지 종류에 영향이 적었다. 결론적으로 한약박을 70% 이상을 배지로 사용하였을 때 한약성분의 직접적인 전이는 없어서 버섯의 상품성을 저하시키지 않았으며 성장률이 빠르며 수확률도 많았고, 조직이 치밀하여 저장성도 향상시켰다. 그러므로 한약박을 느타리버섯뿐만 아니라 여러 종류의 버섯 재배에 활용하는 것이 필요하겠다.

The global mushroom industry has grown rapidly in recent years in terms of beneficial effects, market value, and demand. India has a wide range of agro-climatic conditions and is largely an agricultural country with a cultivated area of about 4.37 %, generating about 620 million tons of agro waste annually. Mushroom cultivation not only helps recycle agro wastes, but also fills the nutritional gap prevalent among a large population of India. Recently, government industrial policy and creative innovation has promoted research and other endeavors aiming towards the cultivation of mushrooms. Mushroom cultivation in India was initiated in Solan, in the mid-sixties. Mushroom cultivation has been successful in temperate regions of the Himalayas, the Western Ghats, and the hills of northeast India. Recently, many unemployed people have begun to adopt mushroom cultivation as a means of self-employment. It is high time that Indian mushroom cultivators and consumers became aware of the nutritional and medicinal values of cultivated and wild species of mushrooms. The total mushroom production in India between 2010 and 2017 was approximately 0.13 million tons, accounting for a 4.3% increase in the average growth rate of mushrooms per annum. In particular, the total production of white button mushrooms is the highest, with a share of about 73% of total mushroom production. In this review article, we have analyzed the current scenario of the Indian mushroom industry and its contribution to the economic growth of the country.

Background: Several studies have reported that wild mushrooms contain high amounts of radioactive cesium (137Cs). After the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Accident, a significantly high concentration of 137Cs has been detected in wild mushrooms, and their consumption may be the cause of the chronic internal exposure of local consumers to radioactivity. Therefore, an accurate evaluation of the internal radioactivity resulting from mushroom ingestion is needed. Materials and Methods: The 137Cs elution rate through the cooking and digestion stages was evaluated using in vitro experiments. The edible mushroom Pleurotus djamor was taken as a sample for the experiments. The mushrooms were cultivated onto solid media containing 137Cs. We evaluated the internal dose based on the actual conditions using the elution rate data. For various cooking methods, the results were compared with those of other wild edible mushrooms. Results and Discussion: From the elution experiment through cooking, we proved that 25%-55% of the 137Cs in the mushrooms was released during soaking, boiling, or frying. The results of a simulated digestion experiment after cooking revealed that almost all the 137Cs in the ingested mushrooms eluted in the digestive juice, regardless of the cooking method. The committed effective dose was reduced by 20%-75% when considering the dissolution through the cooking process. Conclusion: We found that cooking lowers 137Cs concentration in mushrooms, therefore reducing the amount of radioactivity intake. Besides, since there were differences between mushroom types, we demonstrated that the internal exposure dose should be evaluated in detail considering the release of 137Cs during the cooking stages.

The purpose of this study was to develop molecular identification method for medical mushrooms and their preparations based on the nucleotide sequences of nuclear large subunit (LSD) rDNA. Four specimens were collected of each of the three representative medicinal mushrooms used in Korea: Ganoderma Incidum, Coriolus versicolor, and Fomes fomentarius. Fungal material used in these experiments included two different mycelial cultures and two different fruiting bodies from wild or cultivated mushrooms. The genomic DNA of mushrooms were extracted and 3 nuclear LSU rDNA fragments were amplified: set 1 for the 1.1-kb DNA fragment in the upstream region, set 2 for the 1.2-kb fragment in the middle, and set 3 for the 1.3-kb fragment downstream. The amplified gene products of nuclear large subunit rDNA from 3 different mushrooms were cloned into E. coli vector and subjected to nucleotide sequence determination. The sequence thus determined revealed that the gene sequences of the same medicinal mushroom species were more than $99.48\%$ homologous, and the consensus sequences of 3 different medicinal mushrooms were more than $97.80\%$ homologous. Restriction analysis revealed no useful restriction sites for 6-bp recognition enzymes for distinguishing the 3 sequences from one another, but some distinctive restriction patterns were recognized by the 4-bp recognition enzymes AccII and HhaI. This analysis was also confirmed by PCR-RFLP experiments on medicinal mushrooms.
