“…Green mold disease, primarily caused by Trichoderma species, is particularly concerning as it hampers the growth and productivity of G. sichuanense . While Trichoderma is known for its biocontrol effects, it can also act as a pathogen, posing a serious threat to edible fungi during cultivation (Shah et al, 2013;Kosanović et al, 2020). The occurrence of green mold disease caused by Trichoderma species in China has raised significant concerns, resulting in contamination and losses in yield and quality (Seaby, 1987;Choi et al, 1998;Seung et al, 2018).…”

Frontiers is more than just an open access publisher of scholarly articles: it is a pioneering approach to the world of academia, radically improving the way scholarly research is managed. The grand vision of Frontiers is a world where all people have an equal opportunity to seek, share and generate knowledge. Frontiers provides immediate and permanent online open access to all its publications, but this alone is not enough to realize our grand goals. Frontiers journal seriesThe Frontiers journal series is a multi-tier and interdisciplinary set of openaccess, online journals, promising a paradigm shift from the current review, selection and dissemination processes in academic publishing. All Frontiers journals are driven by researchers for researchers; therefore, they constitute a service to the scholarly community. At the same time, the Frontiers journal series operates on a revolutionary invention, the tiered publishing system, initially addressing specific communities of scholars, and gradually climbing up to broader public understanding, thus serving the interests of the lay society, too. Dedication to qualityEach Frontiers article is a landmark of the highest quality, thanks to genuinely collaborative interactions between authors and review editors, who include some of the world's best academicians. Research must be certified by peers before entering a stream of knowledge that may eventually reach the public -and shape society; therefore, Frontiers only applies the most rigorous and unbiased reviews. Frontiers revolutionizes research publishing by freely delivering the most outstanding research, evaluated with no bias from both the academic and social point of view. By applying the most advanced information technologies, Frontiers is catapulting scholarly publishing into a new generation. What are Frontiers Research Topics?Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers journals series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area.

“…Chlorothalonil and Carbendazim were also found effective against Lecanicillium fungicola. Bitertanol, an alcohol derived fungicide was also found to inhibit Trichoderma harzianum in vitro (Shah et al, 2013). Some studies have also suggested a strong fungicidal property of Prochloraz manganese and Trifloxystrobin against Trichoderma spp.…”

Major Fungal Contaminants of Mushrooms and Their Management

Mushrooms are known for several nutritional and medicinal benefits and are cultivated worldwide. Several fungal contaminants of mushrooms have been serving as the major restraining factor in the growing mushroom industry for a long time. Fungal contaminants like Trichoderma spp., Mycogone spp., Lecanicillium spp., Cladobotryum spp., Coprinus spp., Sependonium spp., Sclerotium rolfsii, and Cephalothecum roseum among many, are found to infect mushroom crops at different stages from spawn run period to maturation of fruiting bodies. These contaminants may reduce yield and/or degrade the quality of fruiting bodies of the mushroom causing economic losses. These contaminants are usually peculiar in terms of their symptomatology on the substrates, disease cycle, epidemiological requirements, and yield losses. Most of these contaminants come from poorly sterilized substrates. Several sterilization techniques like steam sterilization, hot water sterilization, alkalinization, bleaching, and chemical sterilization can be employed to eliminate pre-existing contaminants and each technique has its own relative advantage over others. Besides, biological control involving botanicals and live antagonists can also be used as prophylactic sterilant or as therapeutic sprays. Biological control measures are friendly to the environment and human health. Unlike chemical fungicides (used as sterilant or spray), biological control measures don’t inhibit mushroom mycelial growth and even don’t raise the problem of pesticide resistance in pathogens. Roguing out of infected mushroom fruiting bodies or beds, mushroom house sanitation, and management of vector population are also equally important in preventing the spread of the fungal diseases of mushrooms.

“…These microbe-caused diseases damage and deteriorate mushroom quality, affecting biomass and yield and potentially leading to crop failure (Gea et al, 2021). Earlier studies have indicated that various management practices, accompanied by chemical fungicides, are being widely used in controlling Trichoderma spp (Allaga et al, 2021;Shah et al, 2013). However, keeping in mind the importance of eco-friendly bio-management control is a necessary measure to be taken in order to protect the environment and human health.…”

Mushrooms are highly nutritious dietary items that are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and high-quality protein. Oyster and button mushrooms are highly significant species, cultivated in diverse farms and locations. Various fungal contaminants, including Trichoderma sp. hindered the mycelium growth of button mushroom, hence reduces its yield. In this study, bio-management of Trichoderma horzianum which is a major causative agent of mushroom mold was investigated by using different essential oils viz., cinnamon, coconut, neem and rose oil with increasing concentration of 4%, 8%, 12% and 16% against Trichoderma sp. All of the essential oils showed significant impact, but rose oil with concentration of 16% demonstrated the highest efficacy in controlling Trichoderma sp against mushroom mold. Thus, it is suggested that increasing concentration of rose oil would be more effective under in-vitro conditions in controlling Trichoderma horzianum
