This project aims to control crop diseases in cultivated mushrooms by utilizing a synthetic microbial ecosystem in the casing layer. By analyzing the casing microbiome, it seeks to identify biocontrol agents that can inhibit harmful fungi while promoting mushroom growth.
Mycoparasites cause significant crop losses in the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus, but as fungal pathogens of cultivated fungi pose major challenges for disease control.
The casing layer used to cover mushroom compost supports a diverse community of microorganisms with potential to act as host-specific biocontrol agents capable of inhibiting the germination or growth of mycoparasitic fungi, while even promoting mushroom development.
In this project we propose to apply novel and state-of-t…
