Worldwide, they are well recognized as supplementary foods due to their high nutritional values and their medicinal importance, which includes their uses in exhibiting antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, immune enhancer, and to be effective for the treatment of several diseases including diabetes and few types of cancers as well. According to recent studies, extracellular enzymes produced by several white-rot fungal strains such as Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Pleurotus sajor-caju and several mushrooms have shown a high capacity to decolorize dyes that are very harmful for the environment. Moreover, wild macrofungi have the capability to synthesize nanoparticles which are more useful for the treatment of cancer, gene therapy, DNA analysis and biosensors. Wild macrofungi are extremely important model for basic biology and commercial manufacture. 410 0$aFungal Biology,$x2198-7785 606 $aFungi 606 $aMycology 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aPlants$xDevelopment 606 $aPlant biotechnology 606 $aPlants$xEvolution 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aFungi 606 $aPlant Development 606 $aPlant Biotechnology 606 $aPlant Evolution 606 $aBiotechnology 615 0$aFungi. 615 0$aMycology. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aPlants$xDevelopment. 615 0$aPlant biotechnology. 615 0$aPlants$xEvolution. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 14$aFungi. 615 24$aPlant Development. 615 24$aPlant Biotechnology. 615 24$aPlant Evolution. 615 24$aBiotechnology. 676 $a579.6 676 $a579.6 702 $aSingh$b Bhim Pratap$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLallawmsanga$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPassari$b Ajit Kumar$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910309859303321 996 $aBiology of Macrofungi$92539283 997 $aUNINA
