Aim: Mushroom poisoning is a significant public health concern. artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have shown remarkable success in mushroom classification and poisoning prevention, challenges remain. It is clear that the complexity and computational demands of deep learning models can act as a barrier for inte…

This study presents a secondary, exploratory analysis of scenario‐level health‐risk outputs derived from the previously published probabilistic risk assessment of Acar et al. (2026). No new mushroom samples, elemental measurements, exposure measurements, or de novo Monte Carlo simulation were generated in the present…

The negative effects of increasing heat stress on crop production due to climate change necessitate the development of new strategies for sustainable agricultural systems. In this context, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) stand out as a biological adaptation mechanism developed against heat stress through the symbio…

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are increasingly recognized as a sustainable biological approach to improve nutrient acquisition and fruit quality in horticultural crops. Their role is particularly important under calcareous soil conditions where nutrient availability is restricted, thereby reducing reliance on int…

This study evaluates the morphological and molecular characteristics of macrofungal specimens belonging to the genera Gymnopilus and Pholiota, identified during fieldwork in .anakkale province of Türkiye in January 2025. The specimens were documented in detail in their natural habitats, their macroscopic characterist…

Mushrooms are a valuable food due to their nutritional value and medicinal properties. They are ideal for a healthy diet because of their high protein, vitamin, and mineral content and their low fat content. In addition, some compounds having medical importance found in different mushroom species make them valuable as…

This study addresses the need for a clearer understanding of how specific lignocellulosic substrates influence the performance of mycelium-based composites. Mycelium-based composites were prepared by combining Ganoderma lucidum (Curtis) mycelium with sawdust from Quercus sp. (oak) and Fagus orientalis (oriental beech)…

The growing global population, the decline in edible food sources, technological advancements, and limited time have led to significant changes in society's eating habits. The increasing preference for ready-to-eat and semi-prepared foods has also resulted in higher consumption of food additives. In today's conditions…

Stropharia rugosoannulata Farl. ex Murrill is an edible mushroom species recognized for its nutritional value and potential functional properties. In this study, extraction conditions were optimized to maximize the biological potential of its extracts. Ultrasonically assisted extraction parameters, including temperatu…
