| Abstract: |
This chapter explores the application of omics technologies in food mycology, emphasizing the significant impact of filamentous fungi on agriculture, medicine, biotechnology and the food industry. The chapter delves into the importance of understanding fungal secondary metabolism due to its implications for human health and industrial use. Several omics technologies, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, are reviewed for their role in studying the genetic potential and metabolic capabilities of food-related fungi. The potential of CRISPR/Cas9 in fungal research is highlighted, showing its ability to unlock the full genetic potential of these organisms. The chapter also addresses the challenges posed by Big Data research in Omics and the need for advanced data processing methods. Through these discussions, the chapter highlights the future benefits and challenges of omics-based research in food mycology and its potential to revolutionize our understanding and utilization of fungi in various domains.
