Solid-State Fermentation of Plant Residues and Agro-industrial Wastes for the Production of Medicinal Mushrooms

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of the World ((MAPW,volume 4))

Abstract

The environmentally acceptable disposal of agricultural wastes and residues constitutes a major scientific challenge, especially when their chemical properties, recalcitrance, and abundance are taken into account. The use of macrofungi, which grow in nature as wood or litter decomposers and excrete nonspecific oxidative enzymes to degrade lignocellulosics, seems to offer solutions that could be widely and readily applied for the biotransformation of such materials. More importantly still, these organisms demonstrate efficient bioconversion of various types of agro-industrial/forestry by-products with low or no economic value to edible biomass. The process involves controlled solid-state fermentation which is optimized for the production of culinary and medicinal mushrooms, thus providing food of high organoleptic and dietetic value. In addition, their content in bioactive compounds related with anticarcinogenic, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, immunostimulating, and other health-beneficial properties has repeatedly been demonstrated. In this chapter, the enzymatic mechanisms behind lignocellulose degradation by fungi are summarized, and several of the most important cultivated mushrooms are presented with respect to their production requirements and medicinal properties.
