| dc.description.abstract | The present study on the topic “Growth and yield performance of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus sajor-caju) on different media and substrates” were carried out at Mushroom Research and Training Centre, Department of Plant Pathology, Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda, Uttar Pradesh during the September, 2022 to March 2023. Pleurotus sajor-caju (Pl-19 and Pl-202– 201 strain) was used for spawn production. Maize grain was best for spawn production among the wheat grain, maize grain, sorghum grain and pearl millet grain. Maize grain supported for the fastest mycelial growth (11.95mm) followed by sorghum (9.43mm), pearl millet (7.67mm) and wheat (6.01mm) in PL-19 strain. However, sorghum grain was found best for fastest mycelial growth (12.43) followed by pearl millet grain (10.87), maize grain (8.39) and wheat grain (7.93) in Pl-202– 201. Thirteen different types straw was taken for mushroom production such as ragi straw, black gram straw, pearl millet straw, pigeon pea straw, chickpea straw, sorghum straw, sesame straw, maize straw, paddy straw, mustard straw, green gram straw, cowpea straw and wheat straw. But mustard straw supported the fastest mycelial run, pinhead formation, pinhead initiation and first harvesting followed by wheat straw and chickpea straw both the substrates was statistically at par in terms of growth and yield. Seven different media such as corn meal agar, oat meal agar, potato dextrose agar, yeast extract mannitol agar, malt extract mannitol agar, V8-juice agar and Czapek’s dox agar were used for the mycelial growth of Pleurotus sajor-caju in which oat meal agar was found best media followed by yeast extract mannitol agar and Czapek’s Dox agar in both Pl-19 and Pl-202-201. Six different pH were used such as 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0 in which pH 6.0 was best for mycelia growth. | |
