Wild edible mushrooms represent an ecologically and nutritionally valuable group of organisms whose importance in food security, human health, and sustainable forest management is steadily increasing. Their safe and sustainable use requires accurate identification and comprehensive characterization, which often exceed the capabilities of traditional morphology-based methods due to pronounced phenotypic plasticity and cryptic species diversity. This review presents an integrated approach to the identification and characterization of wild edible mushrooms, combining morphological, molecular, biochemical, and ecological methods. Particular emphasis is placed on the research workflow from field sampling to data processing and interpretation, including DNA barcoding, biochemical profiling, analysis of soil–mushroom interactions, and health risk assessment related to heavy metal bioaccumulation. The review also highlights key research gaps in biodiversity-rich but understudied regions and discusses future directions for the sustainable utilization and domestication of wild mushroom species.
