DR. Omoanghe Isikhuemhen (a.k.a. Dr. Omon) MUSHROOM BIOLOGY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY Research Assistant Professor B.Sc. (honors), University of Benin, Nigeria, 1988 M.Sc., University of Benin, Nigeria, 1993 Ph.D., Institute of Microbiology, AS CR, Prague 1999 Phone: Fax: Email: Office: Address: isikhuemheno@mail.ecu.edu N-311 Howell Science Complex Department of Biology East Carolina University Greenville, NC 27858 RESEARCH ACTIVITY I joined the Department of Biology in September 2000. Currently I am working on a collaborative project between the biotechnology unit in the Department of Biology and a biotech company, PhytoMyco Research Corporations, here in Greenville. The project is focused on searching for metabolic pathways in culturable and nonculturable fungi and microorganisms, which can give secondary metabolites of pharmaceutical importance. My scientific research has been focused on the biology, phylogerography, biochemistry of lignocellulose degradation and the application of the tropical white rot fungus Pleurotus tuberregium, in the bioremediation of polluted environments. In collaboration with the Dr. R. Vilgalys, (Mycology Laboratory, Duke University, Durham, NC) and Dr. F. Nerud (Institute of Microbiology, Prague, Czech Republic), we are studying segregation of manganese-dependent peroxidase and laccase genes in two geographically separated strains of an oyster mushroom, Pleurotus djamor Pleurotus tuberregium P. javanicus

27. Biology And Control Of Mushroom Pests Research is aimed at developing optimised pest control strategies that integrateinsect and mushroom biology with biological and chemical control. http://www.hri.ac.uk/site2/research/path/mushpest/mushpest.htm

Funded by MAFF and HDC Pests are a constant threat to the successful commercial production of mushrooms. Uncontrolled populations of any of the main mushroom pests can result in substantial losses in yield due to both direct larval action and associated disease spread by adult flies. Research is aimed at developing optimised pest control strategies that integrate insect and mushroom biology with biological and chemical control. Contact: Phil-F.White@hri.ac.uk or Jane.Smith@hri.ac.uk Host Plant Resistance Natural tolerance or resistance to mushroom pests is being studied in a range of Agaricus species. The mechanisms of resistance are being elucidated. Research will facilitate future breeding programmes for cultivated mushrooms and aid insect control strategies by limiting the reproduction rate of any particular pest. Flies emerging from compost through which various species of Agaricus are growing, are caught on sticky traps. Population spatial dynamics Pest population dynamics is being studied. Efficient use of any control method, especially a biological one, depends on efficient targeting of the pest. Poor targeting can have have serious implications for resistance acquisition, unnecessary environmental pollution, product credibility, control failures and crop loss. Research will aid optimal and minimal use of pesticides and the development of practical biological control agents. The presence of larvae in the individual layers of a mushroom bed are monitored for the duration of the mushroom crop

38. The Biology Of Mushrooms literally. mushroom biology is complicated and the forest/mushroomrelationship is just beginning to be studied on Haida Gwaii. http://www.spruceroots.org/November99/Biology.html

SpruceRoots Magazine - November, 1999 The Biology of Mushrooms by Brigid Cumming There's a lot more to mushrooms than meets the eye, quite literally. Mushroom biology is complicated and the forest/mushroom relationship is just beginning to be studied on Haida Gwaii. Rob Draeseke's, Overview of existing economic information regarding Non-timber Forest Products in British Columbia, a 1998 Ministry of Forests publication, explains that there are three general classes of edible mushrooms: pathogens, saprobes and mutualists. Pathogens attack and often kill living tissue; saprobes live only on dead organic matter. Mutualists (also called micorrhizal) include chanterelles, boletes and pine mushrooms, which are the best known and studied commercially-harvested species. These particular mushrooms are the short-lived visible out-croppings or 'fruiting bodies' of miles and miles of underground mycelial networks. Mutualists enhance a tree's ability to extract water and nutrients from the soil while tapping the tree's store of photosynthetically generated simple sugars and vitamins. This mutually beneficial relationship is called commensal, with the mushroom and tree roots combining to form a hyfal net. While harvesting trees kills the associated mutualist mushroom species, no-one has studied what effect (if any) harvesting mushrooms has on the trees. Mushrooms are both perennial (coming back year after year) and cyclic, with the number of mushrooms varying, sometimes dramatically, from year to year.

VOLUME 30, NUMBER 12 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1998 Philip G. Miles, is an expert in the biology of plants and fungi, and serves as president of the World Society of Mushroom Biology and Mushroom Products. A faculty member since 1956, he is a 1998 recipient of the Chancellor's Award for Excellence in Teaching. What got you interested in studying edible fungi, especially mushrooms? Do you eat many mushrooms yourself? Yes. I enjoy many mushrooms, especially the fresh shiitake, wood's ear, portabella, and others that now are readily available in our local markets. What is the benefit to adding mushrooms to one's diet? Mushrooms are relatively high in protein of good quality, containing all the essential amino acids and being rich in lysine and leucine, which are either low or lacking in most staple cereal foods. Mushrooms are low in total fat and have a high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids. They have relatively large amounts of carbohydrates, and most species possess nutritionally valuable amounts of fiber. Mushrooms contain significant amounts of water-soluble vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and ascorbic acid), as well as minerals. There also is evidence that some species produce compounds that enhance the patient's host defense mechanism, which may offset some of the detrimental side effects brought about by anti-cancer chemotherapy. How can you tell a dangerous mushroom from a good one in the forest or in your backyard?
