This study was conducted on the growth and cultivation of Pleurotus ostreatus var. salignus on local cellulosic wastes. The highest and lowest yields for 100 g material (70% moisture) were obtained with peanut straw (24.8 g) and with sorghum straw (11.3 g), respectively. Protein, pilus/stip, sporophore weight, % dry material, N and C in highest amounts were obtained with peanut straw. The lowest mushroom weight and pilus/stip ratio were obtained with sorghum, whereas the lowest protein, N and dry material weight were obtained with wheat straw. In all the P. ostreatus var. salignus cultivated on peanut and sorghum straw, the most abundant nutrients were protein, potassium and carbon. These results are discussed in relation to the prospect of cultivating P. ostreatus var. salignus in Diyarbakir, Turkey. |
