Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of fungi that lack chlorophyll and reproduce via spores. While Asia provides a suitable environment for mushroom cultivation, the process involves identifying optimal growing conditions, sterilizing compost, inoculating it with mushroom spawn, and maintaining humidity and temperature as the mushrooms grow and are harvested over several months. Key steps include composting organic materials, spreading spawn to initiate mycelial growth, covering it to induce pinning and fruiting, and periodically harvesting mature mushrooms. Common varieties like white button mushrooms are cultivated indoors using these methods to produce nutritional and commercially valuable crops.

Mushrooms are nature's hidden treasures of nutrition. Many people like them for their satisfying meaty taste and their versatility. But are they really good for you? The answer is yes! In fact, you will be surprised to learn about the nutritional benefits of mushrooms. For thousands of years, mushrooms have been used in eastern medicine for their various health benefits.
Mushrooms belong to the kingdom of Fungi. Mushrooms are macro fungi with characteristic fruiting bodies. A mushroom can decompose organic materials and absorb nutrients. Mushrooms can be a good source of protein. Also high in fiber, rich in vitamins, and low in cholesterol.
Mycorrhiza Biofertilizer is also known as VAM (Myco = Fungal + rrhiza = roots) adheres to plants rhizoids leading to development of hyphae. Hyphae boost development and spreading of white root in to soil leading to significant increase in rhizosphere. These hyphae further penetrate and form arbuscules within the root cortical. VAM fungi form a special symbiotic relationship with roots of plant that can enhance growth and survivability of colonized plants.

Pure Culture Technique
Culture : Act of cultivating microorganisms or the microorganisms that are cultivated.
Mixed culture : more than one microorganism
Pure culture : containing a single species of organism.
Common isolation techniques:
1. Streak plate method
2. Pour plate method
3. Spread plate method
4. Roll tube method
In microbiology, the term isolation refers to the separation of a strain from a natural, mixed population of living microbes, as present in the environment, for example in water or soil flora, or from living beings with skin flora, oral flora or gut flora, in order to identify the microbe(s) of interest. Historically, the laboratory techniques of isolation first developed in the field of bacteriology and parasitology (during the 19th century), before those in virology during the 20th century. Methods of microbial isolation have drastically changed over the past 50 years, from a labor perspective with increasing mechanization, and in regard to the technology involved, and hence speed and accuracy.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

Toxic effects of heavy metals : Lead and Arsenicsanjana502982
Heavy metals are naturally occuring metallic chemical elements that have relatively high density, and are toxic at even low concentrations. All toxic metals are termed as heavy metals irrespective of their atomic mass and density, eg. arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium, thallium, chromium, etc.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
2. What Are Mushrooms ?
The mushroom is a fruiting body of microorganisms
called fungi.
To propagate, it forms a mycelium initates growth
stage, generating spores in the gills for dispersal.
As mushrooms lack chlorophyll, they don’t
photosynthesize (process energy from sunlight) like
green plants.
Mushrooms themselves are tasty, popular to eat and a
beneficial source of nutrients for people.
3. Much of Asia’s environment is suitable for
cultivating many different types of
mushrooms.
In addition, the low costs associated with
growing mushrooms helps farmers get started
and make relatively quick and good financial
returns, positively contributing to the country’s
economy.
4. Mushrooms play a significant role in forest
ecology, as they help decompose dead plants
and animals, including dead trees, branches,
leaves, fruits, seeds and animal droppings on
the ground.
6. Nutritional Benefits
Mushrooms are very popular in many countries
and often considered to be as nutritious as meat.
India, Taiwan, Japan, Korea and Thailand have
the highest global export rates of mushrooms.
Scientific research has shown that mushrooms
contain many kinds of carbohydrates, proteins and
fat, B-complex vitamins , important minerals.
14. Key steps in
mushroom production
The key generic steps in mushroom production – a cycle
that takes between one to three months from start to
finish depending on species – are:
identifying and cleaning a dedicated room or
building
in which temperature, moisture and sanitary
conditions can be controlled to grow mushrooms in
choosing a growing medium and storing the raw
ingredients in a clean place under cover and protected
from rain;
15. • pasteurising or sterilizing the medium and
bags
• in which, or tables on which, mushrooms will
be grown (to exclude other fungi that would
compete for the same space – once the selected
fungi has colonized the substrate it can fight
off the competition).
16. seeding the beds with spawn (spores from mature
mushrooms grown on sterile media);
maintaining optimal temperature, moisture, hygiene
and other conditions for mycelium growth and
fruiting, which is the most challenging step; adding
water to the substrate to raise the moisture content
since it helps ensure efficient sterilization;
harvesting and eating, or processing, packaging and
selling the mushrooms;
• cleaning the facility and beginning again.
18. 1. Garden & field cultivation:
Small ridges made in gardens and fields.
Soil inoculated with spawn is covered with leaf litter to
prevent moisture.
The ridges should be periodically watered mushroom
when appear can be picked.
19. 2. Cave cultivation:
Small tunnels are made in rocky areas and mushroom
farms can be established.
Abandoned mines can be used to develop mushroom
farms.
20. 3.Indoor cultivation:
Mushroom are grow in small rooms of the house.
These rooms may be constructed in such a way that they
will be partly above ground and partly below ground.
In some cases arrangement may be made to maintain
accurate temperature and moisture.
Inside this room mushroom may be cultivated either in
small beds. The room should be properly ventilated but
sunlight should not fall directly on the mushroom-beds.
The room should also have air-conditioning facility.
E.g: techniques for cultivation of white button
mushroom.
21. production of
white- button mushroom
There are 5 stages of mushroom production.
1. Composting
2. Spawning
3. Casting
4. Pinning
5. Croping
22. 1. Composting :
There are 2 methods of composting
(a) Long method : require 21 – 28 days
1 meter height heaps are prepared.
Interval of 2-3 days, heap material is mixed with wooden
board.
Gypsum is added in between 14 - 18 day.
At last dark brown mixture is produced.
(b) Short method : require 12- 15 days
Pasteurization is done by fumigation.
Steaming is done at 52-54°c for 2-4 days & rise to 62 °c for 4
hours.
Rest of process is almost same.
24. 2. Spawning :
In a tray, layer of compost are prepared.
Upon it a layers of spawn is prepared .
News paper is spread over it.
Water is sprinkled to maintain humidity 90-95%.
Temperature maintained 20-25 °C
Mycelial growth takes about 15-20 days.
Stage called “SPAWN RUN “ stage .
25. 3. CasTing:
After 15-20 days paper is removed.
Mycelial growth covered with 2-5 cm casting
material.
CaCO3 maintains PH 4-5.
Temperature is maintain 15-20 °C.
Humidity about 85 – 90%
26. 4. Pinning
• Mushroom initials develop after rhizomorphs have formed in the casing.
• The initials are extremely small but can be seen as outgrowths on a
rhizomorph. Once an initial quadruples in size, the structure is a pin.
• Pins continue to expand and grow larger through the button stage, and
ultimately a button enlarges to a mushroom.
• Harvestable mushrooms appear 18 to 21 days after casing.
• Pins develop when the carbon dioxide content of room air is lowered to
0.08 percent or lower, depending on the cultivar, by introducing fresh air
into the growing room.
• Outside air has a carbon dioxide content of about 0.04 percent.
27. 5. Croping :
Fruiting body will start to appear after
12- 16 days & will continue for 3-4 month.
After 2-3 days of 1st cropping another fruiting body
will start to appear.
