Recovery of ${\alpha}$-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1), lignin peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.14), laccase (EC 1.10.3.2), xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8), ${\beta}$-xylosidase (EC 3.2.1.37), ${\beta}$-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) and cellulase (EC 3.2.1.4) from spent mushroom composts (SMCs) of Pleurotus cornucopiae, Pleurotus ostreatus, Pleurotus eryngii, Hericium erinaceum, Lyophyllum ulmarium, Agrocybe cylindracea, Lentinus lepideus, and Flammulina velvtipes were investigated using different extraction buffers. The maximum recovery of the enzymes was mostly detected in SMC extracts with tap water and 0.25% Triton X-100 by shaking incubation (200 rpm) for 2 h at $4^{\circ}C$. The xylanase (152 U/g) and laccase (8.1 U/g) activities were the highest in SMC extracts from F. velvtipes and P. eryngii. In addition, high enzymatic activities of ${\alpha}$-amylase (3.6 U/g) and cellulase (3.4 U/g) was detected in SMC extract of A. cylindracea. Futhermore, cellulase and laccase activities of SMCE from P. eryngii were compared to commercial enzymes.

The effect of P. agarici and P. tolaasii causing the bacterial disease of mushrooms on the mycelial growth and fruitbody formation of F. velutipes was evaluated in laboratory. When the pathogenic bacteria was inoculated simultaneously with F. velutipes or 5 days after inoculation of F. velutipes, they significantly deterred both mycelial growth and fruitbody formation of F. velutipes in sawdust culture and showed strong inhibition under high population density. They appeared to be tender or milky in exhibiting symptom on F. velutipes by inoculating the concentration of $10^2{\sim}10^6$ of unit/g media, and their growth seemed to be stopped under $10^8\;cfu/g$ media. On $10^2\;cfu/g$ media of P. agarici and $10^4\;cfu/g$ media of P. tolaasii, there was no effect on the fruitbody yield of F. velutipes. P. tolaasii was more suppressive in the mycelial growth of F. velutipes than P. agarici, while on fruitbodies formation of F. velutipes, P. agarici showed slightly higher inhibition than that of P. tolaasii. When the bacteria was inoculated 10 days after inoculation of F. velutipes, both mycelial growth and fruit body formation were not affected nearly.

Protein-bound polysaccahrides(PBP) were isolated, purified, and characterized from the sawdust media after harvesting the fruit body of Flammulina velutipes. The yield of the crude PBP(Fr.CA) extracted from the sawdust media, was 0.367% relative to the original sawdust media. The total sugar and protein contents of Fr.CA were 19.8% and 23.8% respectively. Using the membrane filtration, the fraction of which the molecular weight is over 300 kDa(Fr.A) was isolated from the Fr.CA and the yield was 44.6% relative to the Fr.CA. This result indicates that high molecular PBP is the dominant components of the Fr.CA. The Fr.A was separated into three fractions (Fr.A-1, Fr.A-2 and Fr.A-3) whose yields are 5.8%, 8.5% and 13.2% respectively. These fractions were further purified using gel filtration, obtaining a single peak in each fraction that considered as pure PBP Among them, the yield of Fr.A-1-${\alpha}$ was 20.9% relative to the Fr.A-1, and the molecular weight was 800 kDa. Monosaccharide components such as glucose, galactose, mannose, xylose and fucose could be detected all fractions by a HPLC analysis. Especially in the Fr.A-1-${\alpha}$ fraction, the content of glucose and galactose appeared to be high.

This study investigated the changes in the antioxidant activity, nitrite scavenging activity, and ��-glucan content of processed raw materials (Pleurotus eryngii, Pleurotus ostreatus, Lentinula edodes, and Flammulina velutipes) brought about by storage at room temperature (20-25℃) and low temperature (4℃). The results indicated that DPPH free radical scavenging activity was the lowest in air-dried and roasted samples that were stored at room temperature, k with the exception of the air-dried samples of P. eryngii and L. edodes. For total polyphenol contents, all roasted samples of the edible mushrooms stored at room and low temperature decreased compared with the samples pre-storage, except for the air-dried samples of P. eryngii, P. ostreatus, and L. edodes. Furthermore, the ferric reducing antioxidant power and reducing power of the air-dried and roasted samples stored at room temperature and low temperature tended to increase compared to that before storage. Moreover, the ��-glucan content in the air-dried and roasted samples stored at room temperature was significantly lower compared to that before storage, as well as to that in the samples stored at low temperature (p<0.05). The results of this study may help predict the degree to which biological activities in processed edible mushrooms change when stored at room temperature and/or low temperature conditions.

A study on the recognition on the mushrooms by elementary school pupils, middle school students and school dietitians were-carried out. The ways of cooking mushrooms by school dietitians were also investigated. Most students and dietitians highly recognized mushrooms as good food. The most favorite mushroom was Flammulina velutipes, the cooking of mushrooms with meat and the hot mushroom soup with meat(Jungol) being the most preferred cooking methods. School ditetitians like to use mushrooms in school lunch and generally use medium or high duality mushrooms. Students, however, do not tend to prefer mushrooms compared to other vegetables. Mushroom dishes that can promote the consumption by students are mushroom bulgogi, mushroom pizza, sweet and sour mushroom in the order.

The contents of ergocalcife.of (vit D$_2$) and cholecalciferol (vit D$_3$) in mushrooms (Lentinus edodes, Agaricus bisporus, Pleurotus ostreatus, Flammulina velutipes, Auricularia auricular, Gyropora esculenta, Romaria botftis, Coriorus versicolar, Ganoderma lucidum) were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), using external standard method. The methods included saponification, extraction, drying, filtering and quantification with analytical HPLC (waters Inc.). The contents of vit D$_2$ and D$_3$ found in different mushroom species. A. auricular, and L. edodes contained high amounts of vit D, 167.8, 72.6 $\mu\textrm{g}$/100 g of edible portion, respectively. On the other hand A. bisporus showed the lowest contents of vit D among analyzed mushrooms.

The effects of temperature(0, 5, 10 $^{\circ}C$), sawdust removal in root part and packaging conditions on the respiration and keeping qualities were evaluated. Higher respiratory activity, weight loss and stipe elongation were observed at higher temperature. Removal of sawdust part slowed down the rate of stipe elongation with little effect on the respiration rates, and therefore improve the quality preservation. The modified atmosphere packaging of 100g mushroom using hermetically sealing by 30 $\mu\textrm{m}$ polypropylene (CPP) and low density polyethylene (LDPE) films were effective in preserving the quality such as visual appearance and Hunter L value, and reducing weight loss at 0$^{\circ}C$, 5$^{\circ}C$ and 10$^{\circ}C$ compared to perforated packages.

Thirteen subspecies of Bacillus thuringiensis including B. t. israelensis, B. t. morrisoni PG-14 and B.t. darmstadoemsos known to be toxic to dipteran insects were treated on the mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) compost to estimate the biological control effect of a sciarid fly, Lycoriella sp. According to the results, it was found that there were no significant effects of the tested strains of B, thuringiensis on the control of Lycoriella sp. For further confirmation, larval gut juice of Lycoriella sp. and trypsin were respectively treated into the parasporal crystal proteins of three subspecies of B. t. israelensis, B. t. morrisoni PG-14, and B. t. darmstadiensis. The proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE. According to the results, the major parasporal crystal proteins were respectively produced by B. t. morrisoni as the amount of 52 kd, B. y. israelensis as 37kd and B. t. darmstadiensis as 39kd, but the activity of these proteins could not be unfortunately confirmed in this study.

Four Cladobotryum isolates were collected from four different commercially grown mushroom types infected with cobweb disease in Cheongdo-gun and Chilgok-gun of Gyeongbuk Province, Korea in 2010. The isolates were identified as C. mycophilum from Agaricus bisporus and Pleurotus eryngii, C. varium from Flammulina velutipes and Hypsizygus marmoreus. The cultural characteristics of the four isolates were investigated using potato dextrose agar (PDA) media under nine different temperatures ranging from $5{\sim}32^{\circ}C$. Rapid growth of the isolates to colony diameters of 47~82 mm was observed at conditions of $18{\sim}22^{\circ}C$. No growth was observed at $32^{\circ}C$. C. mycophilum produced a yellowish red pigment while C. varium produced a cream colored pigment after cultivation for 25 days on PDA. Phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region and partial 28S rDNA from the four isolates confirmed they were C. mycophilum and C. varium. Cross pathogenicity tests revealed that the two isolates of C. mycophilum were highly pathogenic toward three mushroom types, but not toward H. marmoreus. The two isolates of C. varium were less pathogenic than those of C. mycophilum, but were pathogenic toward all mushroom types evaluated.
