Mushroom Research Center ( MRC)
The Department of Plant Pathology´s Mushroom Research Center provides unique facilities for conducting mushroom research. Research focuses on improving commercial mushroom production through disease control, and studying and manipulating microbial ecology and population dynamics during the composting process. The Mushroom Research Center (MRC) is dedicated to mushroom research.
Production research efforts have been directed toward more efficient mushroom production in terms of increased yields and cost-efficient production, within an environment of escalating costs.
