Abstract

Four strains of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) KBB, M1, S1, T1, were cultivated on lignocellulosis wastes such as wheat straw and cornstalks separately or in combination 1:1. The aim of this work was to choose the best substrate for individual strain of mushroom based on the growth characteristics and yield. Cultivation was realised in polyethylene bags and plastic containers at the temperature 22 ± 1 oC, low concentration of carbon dioxide, high air humidity 85 – 90% and sufficient lighting. Cultivation in polyethylene (PE) bags was at all strains more effective. There were achieved higher yields of fruiting bodies and lower time of colonization of substrate compared with cultivation in plastic containers.
