“…(df=3, F =10.26, p <0.001). Oyster mushrooms is a common cultivable mushroom in various substrates for the last few decades around the world because of their faster mycelium running, improved early production, and yield on different agro wastes in comparison with other cultivated mushroom genera (Debnath et al 2019;Philippoussis et al 2001).…”

Mushroom cultivation on a cost-effective and easily accessible substrate is one of the key areas of research of mycologists. In this present investigation, agro-industrial wastes have been used as a substratum to produce protein-enriched mushrooms having different medicinal potentiality with respect to growth, productivity, and biological efficiency. Mycelium running rate, development of fruiting bodies and productivity of Pleurotus florida was evaluated. The total running of mycelium in days, maximum primordial formation in three flushes, and total numbers of fruit bodies in three flushes were noted. In the grass substratum, fruiting body size was bigger as well as exhibited higher productivity (18.42 %) and biological efficiency (97.58%) in all three flushes and the least productivity and biological efficiency observed in sugarcane bagasse. The current study reveals that the various types of substrates affect mushroom growth, productivity, and biological efficiency.

The present work evaluated the agronomic behavior of species and varieties of Pleurotus submitted or not to the scratching technique. The cultivated species/varieties were Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus ostreatus var. Florida, and Pleurotus djamor, where half of the treatments were scratched before the first and second flushes, while the rest were only scratched before the second flush. Yield (%), biological efficiency (%), weight of mushroom (g) and number of mushrooms (uni) were evaluated. It was observed that scratching harmed the mushroom weight for P. ostreatus, where the treatment without scratching produced significantly higher values, in the first harvest flush. On the other hand, scratching favored yield and the number of mushrooms for P. djamor. When the species are compared, it is noted that P. ostreatus obtained a lower yield, which was also reflected in the biological efficiency. P. djamor stood out with a large number of mushrooms, statistically higher than the other species, on the other hand, producing mushrooms of low weight of mushroom. The use of the scratched technique is not recommended for the conditions used in the work, due to the increase in labor and loss of mushroom weight.

“…The mushroom is a fleshy saprophytic fungus that grows naturally on tree trunks containing rotting natural matter and moist soil. Mushroom cultivation can be used as an efficient method of harvesting and as a strategy to protect the environment 1 . Using the residues in biological processes can consider as one of the biological transformations from non-edible biomass waste solution to nutrient-packed foods protein in the form of edible mushrooms.…”

This research studies the possible use of some of Iraq's local agricultural wastes as growth substrates for producing the edible oyster mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii). The biological process of growing and producing edible mushrooms is a bioconversion of organic wastes to bioprotein (mycoprotein). Therefore, this study aims to investigate nine different substrates from plant residues. The three primary substrates are typical viz date palm waste (Phoenix dactylifera), maize cob (Zea mays) and cane (Phragmites communis), with two types of additional enrichment, i.e., rice husks (Oryza sativa) and corn seeds husks (Zea mays), and without further enrichment (control). The experiment was randomly distributed according to Randomized Complete Design (RCD), with three replicates. The less crop cycle period (day) which in Treatments T7 and T8 (30.33, 31.67 days) when T2 (100%Corncobs), T1 (100%Waste of Date palm), T7 (80%Waste of the date palm with 20%Corn husks) and T8 (80% Corncobs with 20%Corn husks) provide the crest mushrooms yield arrived 293.0 280.7, 268.7 and 264.0 g kg-1 substrate respectively.
