The Application of Fungi and Their Secondary Metabolites in Aquaculture

mycolabadmin

Fungi can help solve several problems in fish farming. They can make plant-based fish feed more nutritious and easier to digest, boost fish immune systems and disease resistance without antibiotics, help fish feed float better in water, and clean up polluted water from fish farms. This makes aquaculture more sustainable and environmentally friendly while reducing costs for farmers.

Efficient conversion of tea residue nutrients: Screening and proliferation of edible fungi

mycolabadmin

Tea leaves left over from making instant tea are usually thrown away, but researchers found that special edible mushrooms can break down these tea residues and convert them into nutritious mushroom protein. Monascus kaoliang B6 was the most effective, using powerful enzymes to decompose the tough plant fibers in tea residue and transform the nutrients into edible mushroom biomass. This discovery offers an environmentally friendly way to recycle tea industry waste into a useful food product without using harsh chemicals.

Isolation and characterization of a new Leptobacillium species promoting tomato plant growth

mycolabadmin

Scientists discovered a new type of beneficial fungus living inside tomato plant roots that helps the plants grow better and produce more nutritious fruit. This fungus, called Leptobacillium sp., makes plant hormones and special compounds that help tomato plants absorb nutrients more effectively. When tomato seeds were treated with this fungus, the plants grew taller and produced fruits with higher levels of lycopene, a beneficial compound. This discovery could help farmers grow better tomatoes using nature’s own microorganisms instead of relying on chemical treatments.
