Living in the Mycelial World

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme glucan 1,4‐α‐glucosidase from the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus niger strain AE‐GN

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme glucan 1,4‐α‐glucosidase (4‐α‐d‐glucan α‐glucohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.3) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus niger strain AE‐GN by Amano Enzyme Inc. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism. It is intended to be used in 13 food manufacturing processes.

Studies on Basidiospore Development in Schizophyllum commune [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1976
The time required for synthesis of the spore components and the effect of different environmental conditions on basidiospore production were studied in the basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune. Both exogenous glucose and storage materials were used in the synthesis of spore components, which took 40 to 45 h to complete.
