An experiment was conducted to assess the amount of residue present in the mushroom fruiting body harvested from the beds treated with formaldehyde and carbendazim against microbial contaminants. Different species of Pleurotus viz ., P. sajor-caju, P. sapidus and a commercial hybrid was used for the experiment. The different concentration levels of formaldehyde and carbendazim was at the rate of 500 ppm formaldehyde + 10 ppm carbendazim, 750 ppm formaldehyde + 20 ppm carbendazim, 1000ppm formaldehyde + 30 ppm carbendazim, 1250 ppm formaldehyde + 40 ppm carbendazim, 1500 ppm formaldehyde + 50 ppm carbendazim, 1750 ppm formaldehyde + 60 ppm carbendazim, 1000 ppm formaldehyde, 40 ppm carbendazim were applied for managing the contaminants. The investigation revealed that the residue of carbendazim present in mushroom fruiting body was least in the concentration at the rate of 40 ppm carbendazim in P. sajor-caju , 60 ppm carbendazim combined with1750 ppm formaldehyde in P. sapidus , 70 ppm carbendazim combined with 2000 ppm formaldehyde and 40ppm carbendazim in commercial hybrid. The maximum residue was found in the concentration at the rate of 30 ppm carbendazim combined with 1000 ppm formaldehyde in P. sajor-caju and P.sapidus and 40 ppm carbendazim combined with 1250 ppm formaldehyde in commercial hybrid.

Mushroom cultivation began in India in 1952. Since then this industry has been oscillating between the myths of earning millions overnight and the ground realities of growing a non-conventional crop. The concept, which branched off as a lesser-known shoot of mycology, has taken unusually long to establish itself in India. Although mushroom science has the inherent subjective capability of a great impact on nutrition, agricultural waste management and environment cleansing; yet has been immensely underexploited in India. Social entrepreneurship is a novel movement gaining momentum around the world. It is a novel concept of modern business model which can find sustainable solutions to social, economic and environmental issues. It is a concept which believes in engaging in profitable commercial activities for mutual social and community gain. It works on the principle “Together wewin”, hence community takes precedence over individuals. Social enterprises have a strong character of creating jobs and making a socially just and inclusive business model. This is the ultimate objectiveof any scientific organization or scientific technology more so of public institutions like ICAR. Mushroom technology can be a very successful social enterprise in the Indian context where agricultural crop residues to the tune of 98 million tons/annum is burnt, where millions of youth are unemployed, where there is rampant undernourishment and ever increasing threat of climate change. A majority (53%) of social enterprises in India are focussed on skill development, followed by 30% on education, 28% in agriculture-related activities, 26% in financial and clean energy,22% in healthcare, 17% on farm livelihood, 16% food & nutrition and 14% sanitation & water.There is a need to initiate mushroom technology based social enterprise which can reduce air pollution by using crop residues to grow mushrooms rather than burn, can create employment in rural unskilled sector, can help in enhancing nutrition, bring diversity to food plate and empower women. Although sporadic examples are available in India, there is a need to increase the number of such enterprises, integrate it with government programs and develop a model in partnership with public institutions who are the technology generators.

Taxonomy of wild macro fungi needs much importance as these are basic foundations of conserving and sustainable management of natural resource. Many fungi are at the edge of extinction due to loss of habitat destruction. The present study deals with diversity of 10 different species belonging to 10genera in different eco-sites of Himachal Pradesh. Field surveys of wild mushrooms were conductedduring the 2018-2020. All the specimens namely Ophiocordyceps gracilis, Clavaria argillacea,Hygrophorus fuscopapillatus, Pisolithus tinctorius, Gymnopus peronatus, Amanita phalloides, Leotialubrica, Cyptotrama asprata , Auriscalpium vulgare and Tylopilus balloui have been studied for taxonomic features and illustrated over here.

Verticillium fungicola is a serious pathogen causing dry bubble disease in button mushroom ( Agaricus bisporus ). Present investigations were carried out on different isolates of pathogen by covering an aspect of physiological variability in pathogen isolates. The isolates of V. fungicola collected from different mushroom farms of Haryana state, coded as MHS (Hisar), BFT (Fatehabad), NJN (Jind),RHT (Rohtak), TPN (Panipat), BSN (Sonipat), FDB (Fridabad) and SKK (Kurukshetra) and pathogenicity was proved on A. bisporus. All isolates showed physiological variations on PDA at pH regimes 6.0 - 7.5 and 15 - 25 °C temperature after 12 days of incubation. Among the evaluated isolates maximum growth was recorded in BSN (44.67 mm), followed by TPN (43.83 mm), FDB (43.33 mm),SKK (42.17 mm), RHT (41.50 mm) and NJN (38.00 mm), while the rest one such as MHS (35.83 mm)and BFT (34.83 mm) showed minimum radial growth at 25±1°C after 12 days of incubation. On the other hand, at 15±1°C the radial growth of all V. fungicola isolates was significantly reduced i.e. 10.00 (BFT), 10.83 (MHS), 11.33 (NJN), 12.50 (RHT), 17.50 (TPN), 18.00 (BSN), 16.17 (FDB) and14.67 mm (SKK) after 12 days of incubation. V. fungicola isolates grow at pH regimes of 6.0 to 7.5.However, the maximum radial growth was achieved in all the isolates when pH was 6.5 followed by 6.0,7.0 and 7.5. Among isolates the maximum growth was recorded at pH 6.5 in BSN isolate (44.83 mm),followed by TPN (44.00 mm), FDB (42.17 mm), SKK (41.50 mm), RHT (41.33 mm) and NJN (38.50mm), while the minimum radial growth was recorded in isolates MHS (37.17 mm) and BFT (35.67mm) at 25±1°C after 12 days of incubation.
