| Abstract | ||||
| Day by day, several innovative applications of mushrooms can be noticed in their farming and cultivation. These applications mainly focus on the medicinal and prebiotic attributes, besides their role for producing the food and energy. This mini-review is an attempt to highlight the cultivation of mushrooms and their requirements under different kinds of farming of mushrooms. These farming types may include mushroom-worm system, mushroom-bee farming, smart mushroom farming, forest-mushrooms farming, urban mushroom farming, and mushroom-livestock farming. This study included the condition of cultivation of several mushroom species and their edibility. Edible/medicinal mushrooms are well-known with their high content of many beneficial bioactive ingredients for human health such as antioxidants, ergosterols, lectins, phenolics/polyphenolics, polysaccharides, and terpenoids. These bioactives of mushrooms have a potential capability to treat and/or prevent several chronic diseases. The medicinal and prebiotic attributes of mushrooms still need more investigations, and this topic of “mushrooms in medicine” stills have several open questions are needed to be answer in the future. | ||||
