Substantial amounts of organo-pollutants, often persistent and toxic, are generated globally each year, posing a threat to soil, water, groundwater, and air. The pollutants encompass a wide range of substances from various sources, which include solid as well as liquid ones, such as landfill leachates and wastewaters. The compounds include paper and pulp mill byproducts, pharmaceuticals, diverse types of plastics, hydrocarbons, pigments, and dyes, as well as pesticides and insecticides. Fungal bioremediation stands out as a promising technology that uses the metabolic potential of fungi to eliminate or mitigate the impact of pollutants. Notably, species of the genus Pycnoporus exhibit significant capabilities for degrading a broad spectrum of toxic molecules. This degradation is facilitated by released ligninolytic enzymes, especially laccase, and cellular enzymes pertaining to the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system. The laccase, which is overproduced by the genus Pycnoporus, is quite remarkable for its high redox potential. The objective of this review is to highlight the proficiency of the Pycnoporus genus in the degradation of pollutants in submerged and solid-state fermentation. Recent studies conducted over the past decade consistently highlight the Pycnoporus genus as a robust contender in the realm of white biotechnology.

Background The demand for natural pigments in general, and for fungi-derived pigments in particular, is constantly rising. Wood-decomposing fungi represent a promising source for natural pigments and they are usually easy to cultivate in pure culture. One of them, i.e., Pycnoporus cinnabarinus , offers a highly interesting spectrum of bioactivity, partly due to the formation of the orange–red pigment cinnabarin. However, apart from a few studies addressing its diverse potential biotechnological applications, there is still a large gap of knowledge concerning the influence of light on the formation of cinnabarin. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of different irradiations on the cinnabarin content, the growth, and the morphology of three different P. cinnabarinus strains. We used highly standardized irradiation conditions and cultivation techniques in combination with newly developed methods for the extraction and direct quantification of cinnabarin. Results Red, green, blue, and UV-A irradiation (mean irradiance E e = 1.5 ± 0.18 W m ⁻² ) had considerable effects on the growth and colony appearance of all three P. cinnabarinus strains tested. The cinnabarin content determined was, thus, dependent on the irradiation wavelength applied, allowing strain-specific thresholds to be defined. Irradiation with wavelengths below this strain-specific threshold corresponded to a lower cinnabarin content, at least at the intensity applied. The orange–red pigment appeared by light microscopy as incrusted extracellular plaques present on the hyphal walls. Highly efficient vegetative propagation occurred by arthroconidia, and we observed the tendency that this asexual reproduction was (i) most frequent in the dark but (ii) never occurred under UV-A exposure. Conclusion This study highlights a differential photo-dependence of growth, morphology, and cinnabarin formation in P. cinnabarinus . This confirms that it is advisable to consider the wavelength of the light used in future biotechnological productions of natural pigments. Graphical abstract

The Turkey Tail mushroom, also known scientifically as Trametes versicolor, is a type of polypore medicinal fungus that may be found growing on tree trunks worldwide. Even though T. versicolor is one of the white-rot fungi studied the most extensively, the commercial applications of this fungus and its metabolic products are still in their infancy. The industrial application of T. versicolor is the focus of this study. The main goal is to demonstrate both the opportunities and the challenges associated with this application, including the fundamentals of a circular bio-economy. The utilization of this fungus can make a considerable contribution toward the starting stages of the valorization of lignocellulosic waste biomass and industrial lignocellulose wastes. This chapter also focuses on the various approaches that can be taken in order to cultivate T. versicolor, as well as their enzyme production and biotransformation processes for the manufacture of food and feed, the handling of wastewater, and the production of biofuel, with an emphasis on the obstacles that can be encountered and the potential avenues that can be pursued.

Traditional chemical pesticides pose potential threats to human health, the environment, and food safety, and there is an urgent need to develop botanical pesticides that are easily degradable, renewable, and environmentally compatible. This research serves to detect the lethal impacts of Amanita pantherina(DC.:Fr) Schrmm.(Agaricales, Amanitaceae, Amanita), Amanita virgineoides Bas (Agaricales, Amanitaceae, Amanita), Coprinus comatus (O.F.Müll.) Pers. (Agaricales, Psathyrellaceae, Coprinus), Pycnoporus cinnabarinus(Jacq.:Fr) Karst (Polyporales, Polyporaceae, Polyporus) and Phallus rubicundus (Bosc) Fr. (Phallales, Phallaceae, Phallus) on Drosophila melanogaster(Diptera, Drosophilidae, Drosophila), including their effects on lifespan, fecundity, offspring growth and developmental characteristics, antioxidant enzyme activity, peroxide content, and the gene transcription associated with signaling pathways and lifespan of D. melanogaster. The results demonstrated that they all produced lethal effects on D. melanogaster. Female flies were more sensitive to the addition of macrofungi to their diet and have a shorter survival time than male flies. The toxic activity of A. pantherina-supplemented diet was the strongest, so that the D. melanogaster in this group had no offspring. The macrofungal-supplemented diets were able to significantly reduce the activity of antioxidant enzymes, accumulate peroxidation products, up-regulatd the transcription of genes related to signaling pathways, inhibit the expression of longevity genes, reduce the lifespan and fertility of D. melanogaster. Consequently, we hypothetically suggest that medicinal C. comatus, P. cinnabarinus and P. rubicundus hold the potential to be developed into an environmentally friendly biopesticide for fly killing.

Natural pigments are playing important roles in our daily lives. They not only make products colorful but also provide various health benefits for humans. In addition, Pycnoporus genus, listed as food- and cosmetic-grade microorganism, is one of the promising organisms for developing natural pigments. In this study, a new fungal strain with high efficiency in producing intense orange pigments was isolated and identified as Pycnoporus sanguineus SYBC-L7. Different agro-industrial wastes were applied to evaluate the growth and pigment production of strain SYBC-L7. SYBC-L7 can grow rapidly and effectively produce pigments using wood chips as substrate in solid-state fermentation (SSF). Culture conditions were also optimized for value-added pigments production and the optimum production conditions were glucose as carbon source, ammonium tartrate as nitrogen source, initial pH 6.0, and relative humidity of 65%. Pigment components, cinnabarinic acid, tramesanguin, and 2-amino-9-formylphenoxazone-1-carbonic acid were confirmed by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. Meanwhile, an agar plate diffusion assay was performed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the pigment. These pigments showed more significant inhibition of Gram-positive than Gram-negative bacteria. The results showed that Pycnoporus sanguineus SYBC-L7 was able to cost-effectively produce intense natural orange pigments with antibacterial activity in SSF, which is the basis of their large-scale production and application.

Basidiomycete fungi that decompose wood produce substances with promising biological activity for the alternative control of plant diseases. The production of these substances can change according to the climatic conditions and the substrate used for fungal cultivation. The objective of this study was to develop a substrate with sawdust from Eucalyptus sp. and to verify its influence on biomass and cinnabarin production by Pycnoporus sanguineus. Sawdust was used in two particle sizes: less than 500 microns (G1) and between 500–841 microns (G2). Four isolates of P. sanguineus were plated on Petri dishes containing potato broth and agar media added with 0%, 1%, 5%, 10%, and 15% sawdust for each particle size. The largest final diameter of the colony and speed of mycelial growth were observed in the substrate with G1 particle size, with the Ps14 isolate showing the highest averages. For these variables, the sawdust concentration did not influence G1 granulometry and provided the highest values in G2 granulometry. Fresh mycelium mass and cinnabarin production showed the highest values in G2, with the isolated Ps13 and Ps08 showing the highest averages, whereas in G1, Ps14 had the best performance for the analyzed variables. These results indicate that sawdust from Eucalyptus sp., at concentrations of 10% and 15%, is an alternative for the in vitro cultivation of P. sanguineus, and that particle size influences the growth speed, fresh mass production, and cinnabarin content.

Wild mushrooms are rich sources of natural compounds with potent bioactive properties. Several important metabolites have been reported from mushrooms, which possess clinically important bioactive properties like antibacterial, anticancer, antidiabetic, and neuroprotective activity. In this study, we have evaluated the antimicrobial activity of Trametes coccinea fruiting body extracts against different bacterial isolates, viz., Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, and Escherichia coli. Fruiting bodies of three T. coccinea samples, of which two were collected from Santipur, Arunachal Pradesh and one collected from Jorhat, Assam, were used for extraction using methanol. The extracts showed significant antimicrobial activity against all the test bacteria. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the extracts against Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, and Escherichia coli was recorded as 400 µg/ml, 400 µg/ml, and 300 µg/ml, respectively. Furthermore, the bioactive compounds of the extract were separated and detected using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). Presence of cinnabarinic acid (CBA)—a potent antimicrobial compound- was detected in TLC, which was further confirmed through High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS). Cinnabarinic acid was able to inhibit the formation of biofilms in Bacillus subtilis and B. cereus, suggesting that the compound can be beneficial in the management of biofilm-based antimicrobial resistance.
