Abstract
Significant differences in gross wall chemical composition were detected in four commercial Agaricus bisporus strains. All were grown under the same conditions and their walls prepared by a mild method of breakage. A more detailed analysis of the wall fractions, isolated by means of their distinct solubilities, also showed striking structural differences among the four strains studied. The detected differences, not only in the overall composition of the wall but also in the polysaccharide structure, could assist in the characterization of strains and/or varieties of the commercial basidiomycete A. bisporus.
