Researchers discovered that adding nucleotides and nucleosides to oyster mushroom growing medium significantly increases mushroom yield and nutritional value. These compounds enhanced the dietary fiber and amino acid content while helping the mushrooms break down tough plant materials more efficiently. The study suggests that nucleosides are particularly effective and could provide a simpler, safer alternative to traditional mushroom cultivation methods that involve lengthy composting processes.
