Morphological and biochemical study of Bulgarian species Agaricus bohusi
Journal Title: Journal of Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences (JBES) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Тhe study is first report on the biochemical composition of Agaricus bohusii Bon. The results obtained contribute to the knowledge of the chemical composition of mushrooms belonging to the Agaricus genus. There has been isolation, identification and analysis of the polar fraction, lipid and mineral content, as well as of pigments. Proteins contained 18 amino acids. Amino acid profile showed A. bohusii proteins are rich in valin, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, glycine, isoleucine and lysine. A detailed macro– and microscopic description is given. The species are described and illustrated on the basis of Bulgarian specimens.
