S. no. | Mushroom types | Mutagenicity test results | Reference |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Nine wild and two cultivated species of Spanish edible mushrooms | The mushrooms were mutagenic to TA100 and TA98 strains | Morales et al., ([1990]) |
2 | Wild and commercially grown mushrooms | Presence of microsomal enzymes (S-9) reduced the mutagenic effects of all the mushrooms, with the exception of Agaricus abruptibulbus and Cantharellus cibarius. | Gruter et al., ([1991]) |
3 | Agaricus bisporus | Direct-acting mutagenic response in various Salmonella typhimurium strains, TA104. Agaritine is not responsible for the mutagenicity of mushroom extracts | Papaparaskeva et al., ([1991]) |
4 | Agaricus bisporus | Agaritine was weakly mutagenic, in the absence of an activation system, in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA104. | Walton et al., ([1997]) |
5 | Pleurotus florida cultivated on handmade paper and cardboard industrial waste | Not mutagenic with either TA 98 or TA 100 strain | Kulshreshtha et al., ([2011]) |
6 | Pleurotus citrinopileatus cultivated on handmade paper and cardboard industrial waste | Mushroom extract is mutagenic with TA 98 strain | Kulshreshtha et al., [(2013)] |
