The propagation, extraction, and antibacterial studies of Azolla pinnata were carried out in this study. The propagation involved two fertilizers, which were chicken manure and inorganic AB fertilizer. The dry yield was extracted using two methods, which were Soxhlet and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). Methanolic extracts were obtained and su...

... Wild edible saprophytic edible mushrooms are badely known in Algeria. Many studies were made only on wild macrofungi and basidiomycetes in Algeria (Benazza-Bouregba, 2016;Yakhlef et al., 2020;Mesfek et al., 2022;Ait-Hamadouche et al., 2022). Wild edible mushrooms are known by people in Europe (especially in Spain and Portugal), America and Australia (Kalač, 2009;Martins and Ferreira, 2011;Davis et al., 2012;Leal et al., 2013), Asia (Toshinungla et al., 2016) and rarely cited in Africa except in countries such as Nigeria and South Africa (Popich, 2014), Congo (Toshinungla et al., 2016, Egypt (El-Fallalet al., 2017), Morocco (Ali et al., 2015) and Tunisia (Ouali et al., 2021). ...
This study concerned a species of wild edible mushroom, oyster mushroom collected in western Algeria forests, which is well consumed by the local population. These species were identified by macroscopic, microscopic and molecular characteristics. The mushroom's mycelium was isolated and the optimal conditions for mycelial growth were determined. Variation in different physicochemical parameters (pH, temperature, relative humidity and light) significantly influenced the mycelial growth of the mushroom on potato dextrose agar medium. Optimal mycelia growth was observed at pH 5.6, 25 °C, 100% humidity and low exposure to light. Wheat was used as spawn substrate and straw was used as fructifying substrate. The sporophores of the mushroom were obtained after one month of incubation. We cultivated this wild mushroom from its mycelium and defined the nutritional value of the obtained sporophores. The nutritional analysis was performed according to the most common analytical methods. The composition in moisture, ash, fat, protein, total carbohydrates allowed us to demonstrate that the wild edible mushroom harvested in forests of western Algeria had an important nutritional value. This wild edible mushroom was a remarkable and potential resource for development.
