Due to the recent insights of the mushroom nutritional and medicinal advantages, interests in mushroom production and consumption have been increasing. The main aim of this paper is to report the effect of substrates' composed from different mix ratio of wheat straws, waste paper and cotton seed waste on growth, yield and yield related parameters of oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) mushroom. The experiment was conducted from December 20017 to March 2018. There were five treatments (T1-T5) with two replications in randomized complete design. The quantitative data were collected and analyzed. The results of this experiments indicated that, the fastest mycelia run was recorded from T4 (19.5 days) for complete colonization and the slowest from T1 (28 days) for complete colonization. Fewer days from colonization to primordial formation was taken for treatment T3 and T4 (2.5 days), while more days taken for T5 (4 days. Larger cap diameter (11.19 cm) was recorded for the mushroom grown on T1. While smaller cap diameter 96.23) was recorded for the mushroom grown on T4, shortest stipe length was recorded from the mushroom on T5 while longest stipe length was recorded for T2, (4.11); highest number of fruits recorded for T3 (41.44) while lowest number of fruits recorded for T5 (22.07). Highest number of aborts recorded for T2 (18.78, while the lowest was recorded for T5 (10.37); Highest number of bunches recorded for T4, (4) while the lowest number of bunches recorded for T5 (1.38). Maximum number of fruits 41.44 (T3), highest biological efficiencies 191.745 (T5), were produced from the different substrate composed from wheat straw, waste paper supplemented with cotton seed waste. Treatments T3 and T4 of this experiment gave maximum total biomass and Biological efficiency so that it could be recommended for pilot or large scale production of oyster mushroom.

Efficacy of different substrates on the production of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus sajor-caju)
Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry, 2018
The study was conducted to examine the efficacy of different type of agro-waste viz. Wheat straw (Triticum aestivum), Paddy straw (Oryza sativa) and Maize stalks (Zea mays) on Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus sajor caju) production. The results indicated that different substrate formulas gave a significant difference on spawn running, fruiting bodies formation and pin head formation, yield and biological efficiency. Wheat straw showed significantly highest yield (747.1±3.2) with biological efficiency (149.4) per cent and lesser time for spawn run (17-19 days) and mushroom pin head appearance (21-23 days). Maize stalks required more time for spawn run (25-28 days) and pin head appearance (31-36 days) and resulted less yield (478.1±2.1) with (95.62) per cent biological efficiency. The study revealed that lesser time taken to colonize the substrates is consistent with better yield and highest biological efficiency.

Present study was conducted in the laboratory as well as in mushroom house to determine the effect of different agricultural wastes (wheat straw, rice straw, sugarcane bagasse, maize straw and sorghum straw) on growth, production and quality of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus florida). The culture was maintained on Malt Extract Agar medium. Spawn was prepared on wheat grains. Spawn running took less time i.e. 20 days on wheat straw as compared to other substrates. The appearance of pinhead and their maturity also took less time i.e. 29 days and 30 days, respectively on wheat straw. Maximum yield i.e. 1360 gram was recorded on wheat straw. The first flush gave the maximum yield in all treatments and there was a progressive decrease in the yield of successive flushes. The maximum biological efficiency of 136% was observed in case of wheat straw. The maximum moisture (93.44%) and ash (1.006%) were recorded in oyster mushroom obtained from sorghum straw.

Growth and yield performance of oyster mushroom on different substrates
Cultivation of mushrooms on lignocellulosic wastes represents one of the most economic organic recycling processes. In this research, three Pleurotus species viz., P. nebrodensis, P. ostreatus and P. eryngii were cultivated on cotton waste, saw dust, paddy straw and mixture of these substrates (cotton waste + saw dust, cotton waste + paddy straw, saw dust + paddy straw + cotton waste). Mycelial growth (days), stalk length and diameter (mm), emergence of primordia (days), time period from primordial initiation to harvesting (days), number of fruiting bodies, average individual weight of fruiting bodies (g), number of flushes, total yield (kg), interval between flushes (days) and biological efficiency were recorded. Amongst the three fungi, P. ostreatus showed the best growth and productivity. Saw dust gave the best results in spawn running, time interval between primordial initiation to harvesting stage and in number of flushes. Combination of saw dust, paddy straw and cotton waste gave the best results in emergence of primordia, fruiting bodies weight, moisture percentage, biological efficiency and total yield.

Selection of appropriate substrate for production of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus)
Journal of Yeast and Fungal Research, 2020
Mushroom production is an economically viable biotechnology process for conversion of various agroindustrial wastes into food. Mushroom, a fruiting body of macrofungi has been valued throughout the world as either food or medicine for more than three thousand years ago. The mushroom grows on a vast number of substrate and environment. Substrate compromises different agro-industrial residues that possess varied property for supporting the growth of mushroom. Though, the most appropriate composition of the substrate should be selected to obtain a better result. Hence, the study was conducted to select appropriate substrate for production of oyster mushroom and to identify the suitable combination from a selected substrate to get a high yield of oyster mushroom. The effects of different selected agro industrial residues on growth and bioconversion efficiency of oyster mushroom was determined. For this study, Oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) were grown on different substrates namely cotton seed, enset waste, sawdust, and teff straw with different composition. The spawn was produced using three grains to know the performance of oyster mushroom. The main step used for oyster mushroom production includes preparation of culture media, spawn production, preparation of the substrate, fruiting, and harvesting. The highest bioconversion efficiency and yield were obtained from the combination of sawdust and teff straw. While the lowest yield and bioconversion efficacy was obtained from combination teff straw and enset waste.

Mushroom cultivation is reported as an economically viable biotechnology process for conversion of various lignocellulosic wastes. Given the lack of technology know-how on the cultivation of mushroom, this study was conducted in Wondo Genet College of Forestry and Natural Resource, with the aim to assess the suitability of selected substrates (agricultural and/or forest wastes) for oyster mushroom cultivation. Accordingly, four substrates (cotton seed, paper waste, wheat straw, and sawdust) were tested for their efficacy in oyster mushroom production. Pure culture of oyster mushroom was obtained from Mycology laboratory, Department of Plant Biology and Biodiversity Management, Addis Ababa University. The pure culture was inoculated on potato dextrose agar for spawn preparation. Then, the spawn containing sorghum was inoculated with the fungal culture for the formation of fruiting bodies on the agricultural wastes. The oyster mushroom cultivation was undertaken under aseptic conditions, and the growth and development of mushroom were monitored daily. Results of the study revealed that oyster mushroom can grow on cotton seed, paper waste, sawdust and wheat straw, with varying growth performances. The highest biological and economic yield, as well as the highest percentage of biological efficiency of oyster mushroom was obtained from cotton seed, while the least was from sawdust. The study recommends cotton seed, followed by paper waste as suitable substrates for the cultivation of oyster mushroom. It also suggests that there is a need for further investigation on various aspects of oyster mushroom cultivation in Ethiopia to promote the industry.
