Some studies have reported the method for treating the spent mushroom substrate (SMS). However, the effective use as a functional raw material based on properties of SMS remains a formidable challenge. In this study, we investigated the usefulness of SMS in agriculture to develop a new method for treating and utilizing it.

Chlamydia-like organisms (CLO) have been found to be present in many environmental niches, including human sewage and agricultural run-of, as well as in a number of aquatic species worldwide. Therefore, monitoring their presence in sentinel wildlife species may be useful in assessing the wider health of marine food webs in response to habitat loss, pollution and disease.

In this study, sweetened black and green tea were utilized as substrate for kombucha fermentation. Linden, lemon balm, sage, echinacea, mint, and cinnamon infusions were added to kombucha to design a novel beverage with improved functional and organoleptic characteristics. After fermentation, the antioxidant capacity (AC) of the kombucha increased by 13.96% 2,2-diphenyl-1- picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH), 48.90% ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), and 55.54% cupric reducing AC (CUPRAC).

The production of cellulases is an important strategy for the development of sustainable second-generation ethanol production processes. The present study was undertaken to select cheap and efficient agricultural residue suitable for cellulase production using fungus Humicola insolens. Six different agricultural residues viz., paddy straw, soybean pod husk, sugarcane bagasse, groundnut shells, corn stalks and pigeonpea pod husk were used as substrate in the solid state fermentation medium.

The purposeful utilization of the vegetative development of mushroomframing parasites on wood mulch substrates as a naturally dynamic filtration media, a procedure known as mycofiltration, is a promising new innovation for improving biofiltration of storm water, gray water, and agricultural spillover. Late trials have recorded that Escherichia coli can be selectively removed from sullied water around 20% for each cubic foot more successfully by mycofiltration than by wood mulch alone.

This present study compares the characteristics of biochars produced by slow pyrolysis at 400-450°C for the biological substrates namely, Coccus nucifera shells (CNS) and Prosopis glandulosa hard wood (PGH). Biochar yield of the biomass substrates varied from 25-28 %. C/N ratio and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) was found to be higher in PGH biochar as 11.25 and 16.70 cmolkg -1 respectively.

Quantitative screening of lignocellulose degrading fungi using digested biogas slurry as a substrate
Digested biogas slurry is a rich lignocellulosic substrate, consistent with the idea of sustainable agriculture and development. This work is aimed at utilization of digested biogas slurry as a substrate for the quantitative screening of lignocellulose degrading fungi. In this study, the potential of digested biogas slurry as a substrate to determine the lignocellulolytic enzyme production after 8 days of incubation at 30±2ºC (mesophilic) and 50±2ºC (thermophilic) was investigated.

plant growth-promoting microorganismThe present study was conducted at the Department of Agricultural Microbiology, GKVK, University of Agricultural Sciences, Bengaluru-65. Spent mushroom substrate obtained after the mushroom cultivation was rich in nutrients and it was used as carrier material for the survival studies of plant growth promoting microorganisms (Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus megaterium and Trichoderma harzianum) at different time intervals by serial dilution plate count technique up to 120 days.

Hydrogel is basically a water absorbing polymer, which are classified as cross-linked, absorb aqueous solutions through hydrogen bonding with water molecules. Agricultural hydrogels are referred to as water retention granules because they swell to many times their original size when they come in contact with water. It has been widely proposed over the last 40 years for agricultural use with the aim to ameliorate water availability for plants, by increasing water holding properties of growing media (soils or soilless substrates).

In eco-friendly management of soil borne plant diseases the T. viride plays an important role. Traditionally T. viride is multiplied on solid and liquid fermentation. Solid fermented biomass of Trichoderma consisted mainly of chlamydospores and conidia with some amount of mycelia fragments. High costs of substrate and storage methods are major problems in accelerate the production. Therefore, experiments were carried out to screen out locally available agricultural wastes and grains for solid fermentation process.
