Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry, 2021
in winter season of the year 2019-20 and 2020-21, respectively to assess the effect of various substrates such as wheat straw and paddy straw in different treatments combination on yield of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus florida). The experiment was laid out in completely randomized block design consisted of twelve treatments combination in each replication and replicated thrice. The pooled data of two years showed that the maximum number of sporophores (97.17), number of pinheads (169.50), yield of first harvest per bed (400.33 g), yield of second harvest per bed (360.17 g) and yield of third harvest per bed (142.52 g) was reported in treatment T6 (wheat straw 80% + paddy straw 20%) while the minimum number of sporophore (85.00), number of pinhead (154.17), yield of first harvest per bed (351.98 g), yield of second harvest per bed (319.33 g) and yield of third harvest per bed (125.93 g) was reported in treatment T2 (Paddy straw 100%). Thus, the different substrates used in treatments combination showed that the combination of Wheat straw (80%) + Paddy straw (20%) is best for the mushroom cultivation under Lucknow condition in terms of yield and economic returns and by cultivating mushroom crop income of marginalized sections of society can be improved.

Mushrooms are extraordinarily nutritious products, can be produced from lignocellulosic waste materials. The present study was conducted on oyster mushroom Pleurotus sajor-caju with different substrates viz., wheat straw, paddy straw, soybean straw and maize stalks and leaves. Amongst the different substrates wheat straw was found significantly higher in respect of maximum flushes (3.4), number (171.03) and weight of sporophores (4.05 g) as well as yield of sporophores (694.38 g/kg straw). The other substrates gave optimum yield such as paddy straw (619.72 g/kg straw). The lowest yield was observed in maize stalk and leaves (425.30 g/kg straw).

An experiment was conducted at Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal to find out the growth and yield performance of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) in Completely Randomized Design (CRD).The treatment includes the four different substrate i.e. paddy straw (100%), maize cob+ paddy straw (1:1), sugarcane bagasses+paddy straw (1:1) and sawdust+ paddy straw (1:1). The parameters taken for the observation during the experiment were colonization period, fruit initiation period, length of stalk, diameter of stalk, diameter of pileus, fresh weight of the first and second flush of mushroom and also the biological efficiency (BE) of various substrates. Among the used substrates, the time for colonization and fruit initiation was found to be shorter in case of the paddy straw i.e.18.25 days and 21.75 days respectively. However, the length of stalk was highest in sugarcane bagasses+paddy straw (1:1) i.e.6.10 cm, but the diameter of stalk and pileus were highest in paddy straw i.e.0.80 cm and 7.90 cm respectively. Similarly, the biological efficiency was found to be highest in case of the paddy straw (96.29688 %) followed by maize cob+paddy straw (1:1), sugarcane bagasses+ paddy straw (1:1) and sawdust+ paddy straw (1:1) respectively.

Oyster mushrooms are considered an important health food all over the world. There are various varieties of mushrooms cultivated by the growers. The experiment at Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute, Faculty Centre for Agricultural Education and Research, Coimbatore was designed to assess the performance of the oyster mushroom Pleurotus sajar-caju in various substrates and to identify the best substrates for cultivation. Six different substrates (viz., paddy straw, sugarcane bagasse, teak leaves, forest waste, turf waste, and bamboo leaves) were used for oyster mushroom production. T3-Forest waste and T1-Sugarcane Bagasse had the shortest spawn running durations (20 and 20.3 days, respectively), followed by T2 and T5-teak and bamboo leaves (22.3 days). Among the six substrates, T0-Paddy straw (570 g) produced a significantly higher yield, followed by T4-Turf grass (467 g).

A research was conducted at Gokuleshwor VDC of Darchula district during 2015 to determine the performance of different substrate for the production of Oyster The research was carried out by growing florida species of Pleurotus (Oyster Mushroom), on five different substrates namely banana leaves, rice straw, wheat straw, mixture of rice and wheat straw and saw dust under one factor CRD design with four replication during summer with an average daily temperature of 26 0 C-30 0 C and RH ranging from 80 to 100%. Among the five different treatments banana leaves was found to be suitable as it obtained more total yield per five kg of substrate i. e. 4.76 kg followed by other substrates. The saw dust gave lowest yield i.e. 0.97 kg which may be due to presence of different phenolic compounds. The duration of first mycelium colonization, fruiting and harvesting was shorter in banana leaves followed by other substrates and longer in saw dust. Longer stipe length was obtained from banana leaves (6.41 cm) and wider Cap diameter was obtained from wheat straw (9.87 cm) followed by other substrates. Similarly, the maximum final substrate weight per ball was obtained from saw dust i.e. 4.56 kg followed by other substrates and minimum in banana leaves i.e. 2.12 kg. In conclusion banana leaves was found best substrate for production of P. florida as it gave the highest B:C ratio (3.13) followed by rice straw (2.10) among the substrate used.

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. Percent protein content (8.75 gram), ...

Production of oyster mushroom is very low in Pakistan. To estimate growth and yield response of Pleurotus ostreatus an experiment was performed in Medicinal and Mushroom Lab, Institute of Horticultural Sciences, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Two substrates (cotton waste and sorghum straw) were used alone and with different combinations. There were five treatments T 0 (100 % Cotton Waste), T 1 (100% Sorghum Straw), T 2 (75% Sorghum Straw + 25% Cotton Waste), T 3 (50% Sorghum Straw + 50% Cotton Waste), T 4 (25% Sorghum Straw + 75% Cotton Waste). Data regarding time taken for initiation of spawn run, completion of mycelial growth, initiation of pinheads, total number of pinheads, time taken to harvest 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd flush, fresh weight of 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd flush harvested, total yield, pH, total soluble solids, acidity, ascorbic acid contents, total nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium contents, reducing sugars, non-reducing sugars and total sugars was recorded. T 0 (100 %...
Experiment was carried out in the mushroom cultivation laboratory, Horticulture Center, Khairtala, Jessore to evaluate the better performance of oyster mushroom Pleurotus florida in different substrate compositions as well as to find out the better substrate for mushroom cultivation. Highest mycelium running rate was found in banana leaves and rice straw (1:1) but the lowest in control. Completion of mycelium running time was lowest in banana leaves and rice straw (1:3 and 3:1). Number of total primordia and effective primordia, found highest in control but the maximum pileus thickness was measured from rice straw. Highest biological yield and economic yield (164.4 g and 151.1 g) was obtained from rice straw which was much higher than control. From the graphical view, both positive and negative relationships were found between economic yield and different yield contributing attributes.
