This review aimed to synthesize current knowledge on the potential of Basidiomycetes fungi as a foundation for developing eco-friendly plant protection products, effective in the fight against plant diseases and weeds. The study conducts a comprehensive literature review using the PRISMA framework, focusing on peer-reviewed articles published between 2000 and 2023. It systematically examines the potential of Basidiomycetes in plant protection and growth stimulation, assessing their mechanisms of action, efficacy, and environmental impact in comparison to traditional chemical methods. The study reveals a number of important Basidiomycete species, such as Ganoderma lucidum, Trametes versicolour, and Fomes fomentarius, that have a great deal of promise for protecting plants. These fungi have a variety of ways of working, including the production of chitinases, glucanases, and antibacterial polysaccharides that increase plant resistance to infections and promote growth. The review stresses the advantages of these species for the environment over conventional chemical pesticides and their efficacy as biocontrol agents against a variety of phytopathogens and pests. The study also emphasizes how Basidiomycetes can create bioactive substances, which support their phytostimulant and biocontrol capabilities. The findings show that basidiomycetes have a promising role in sustainable agriculture as a substitute for chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
