Mushrooms are fleshy fungi with a high prospective for the
production of secondary metabolites including extracellular enzymes
with high agricultural and biotechnological significance.
Worldwide, they are well recognized as supplementary foods due to
their high nutritional values and their medicinal importance, which
includes their uses in exhibiting antioxidant and antimicrobial
activities, immune enhancer, and to be effective for the treatment
of several diseases including diabetes and few types of cancers as
well. According to recent studies, extracellular enzymes produced
by several white-rot fungal strains such as Phanerochaete
chrysosporium, Pleurotus sajor-caju and several mushrooms have
shown a high capacity to decolorize dyes that are very harmful for
the environment. Moreover, wild macrofungi have the capability to
synthesize nanoparticles which are more useful for the treatment of
cancer, gene therapy, DNA analysis and biosensors. Wild macrofungi
are extremely important model for basic biology and commercial
manufacture.
