Abstract
A total of 294 single spores were isolated from eleven-button mushroom strain and 132 wereevaluated for their fertility of which 24 were found non-fruiting whereas eleven single sporeisolatesstartedfruitingaftersecondflushofcroppingandremainingwerefertile.buttonmushrooms(Agaricusbisporus)werecoatedbydissolvingfourdifferentorganiccoatingmaterialviz. apple peel powder), carboxymethyl cellulose, tartaric acid, and glycerol monostearate indistilled water and dipping the mushroom in coating solution for 45 to 75 experiments wereconducted using response surface methodology and the coated as well as uncoated samples werestored at ambient and refrigerated conditions. Various quality parameters of button mushroomwere measured. Duringthe last decade several major breakthroughs have been achievedinmushroom biotechnology, which greatly enhanced classical mushroom breeding.
