{Abstract}: The aim of the research was to determine the quantitative and qualitative composition of the communities of fungi and bacteria formed in the soil under the influence of onion cultivation, with consideration to various options of conserving cultivation, using spring rye and common vetch as after-crop cover plants. Moreover, in the laboratory tests, the occurrence of microorganisms characterizing by an antagonistic influence on pathogenic fungi with a facultative parasiting was established. As a result of the laboratory microbiological analysis it was found out that particular soil samples taken from under the cultivation of onion differed with the qualitative and quantitative composition of microorganisms. Spring rye stimulated the growth and development of microorganisms, especially antagonistic ones (Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Gliocladium spp., Trichoderma spp.), and common vetch caused an increase of the number of cfu of pathogens (Alternaria alternata, Fusarium culmorum, F. oxysporum, F solani, Penicillium spp., Pythium irregulare).

{Abstract}: Cultivation techniques for Agaricus brasiliensis (composting method) and substratum formulations are the same ones used for Agaricus bisporus. Most of the carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratios reported for A. brasiliensis are similar to those used for A. bisporus on the composting method and there arc few studies about the variation of C:N ratios for A. brasilienses on the axenic method. The objective Of this study was to verify the mycelial growth of A. brasiliensis on different C:N ratios using regional by-products as substrate formulation on the axenic method. Studied C:N ratios of substrate (mixture of soybean and cassava fibers) ranged from 11:1 to 248:1, with nitrogen content ranging from 4.25 to 0.20%, respectively. It was concluded that substrate with only soybean fiber generates higher mycelial growth than any formulation with cassava fiber; the highest mycelial growth on substrate is with C:N ratio of 11:1 (N = 4.25%); the intermediate growth is with C:N ratio range from 15:1 to 50:1 (N from 3.31 to 0.989%); and the lowest growth is with C:N ratio of 100:1 or higher (N <= 0.50%).

{Abstract}: Basic density of wood from seven species and three clones of eucalyptus before and during shiitake cultivation, Basic density of the wood and bark of seven eucalyptus species (E.. saligna, E. grandis, E. urophylla, E. cannaldulensis, E, citriodora, E. paniculata and E. pellita) and three eucalyptus clones (E. grandis x E. urophylla hybrids) were evaluated before and during the cultivation of shiitake (Lentinula edodes) strains LE-95/01 and LE-96/18 in logs. Each shiitake strain was inoculated into 9 logs of each type of eucalyptus with length of 1 m and diameter of 9 to 14 cm. Thus, the experimental design was totally randomized, with 20 treatments and 9 repetitions, with each repetition corresponding to one log, The logs were kept in a greenhouse, under the temperature of 25 +/- 5 degrees C and relative air humidity between 60-80%, during 12 months. To determine basic density, newly cut disks and barks wedges of eucalyptus (without the inoculation of L. edodes strains) and disks wedges removed from logs inoculated with L. edodes strains after 8 and 12 mouths of incubation were analyzed. It was verified that wood basic density decreased in all types of eucalyptus along the cultivation cycle.

{Abstract}: The Outdoor cultivation (ditches) of Agaricus blazei was evaluated in the protected natural area (APA) of the mountainous region of Baturite on three types of casing soils (A, B and C). Casing soil A (horizon A) of the local soil was used (Alfisol). Casing B was obtained with a mixture of 30% of eucalyptus charcoal (1-2 cm of length) and 70% of horizon B of the local soil. Casing C was composed of 25% of vermiculite, 25% of coconut fiber and 50% of coarse sand. Temperature, relative humidity and pluviometric rates were monitored. The physical-chemical properties of the three casing soils were analyzed. The effect of the casing soil on the number and weight of the mushrooms, productivity, yield and biological efficiency of A. blazei were evaluated. The yield, productivity, biological efficiency and number Of Mushrooms were higher when using soil A. The highest productivity for soil A was attributed mainly to the physical characteristics, which were considered more appropriate for the cultivation, in addition to the high pluviometric rates and relative humidity. The productivity with soil A (9.62%) is comparable with the average productivity obtained in Brazil, meaning that the cultivation of A. blazei in this APA may have good perspectives for cultivation.
