Abstract The global trend toward carbon neutrality and sustainability calls for collaborative efforts in both the basic applied research sectors to utilize mushroom mycelia as environmentally friendly sustainable materials. Fungi, along with animals plants, are one of major eukaryotic life forms. They have long been utilized traditional biotechnology sectors, such food fermentation, antibiotic production, industrial enzyme production. Some fungi also consumed crops, fruiting bodies various mushrooms. Recently, new trends emerged, shifting from applications towards innovative use mycelium eco-friendly bioresources. This approach has gained attention development alternative meats, mycofabrication biocomposites, production mycelial leather fabrics. These aim replace animal husbandry recycle agricultural waste construction electrical paper reviews current on mycelia, covering strain improvements molecular breeding well products processes. Key findings, practical considerations, valorization discussed. Graphical

Cross-linking, also called tanning, improves mechanical properties of leather and increases its enzymatic thermal stability. As a final product, has an ultimate tensile strength (σ) 8-25 MPa elongation at break (ε) >30 %. Mycelium-based materials are sustainable alternative to leather. Here, the effect cross-linkers was assessed on
