Production of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) from some waste lignocellulosic materials and FTIR characterization of structural changes
mycolabadmin
Researchers successfully grew oyster mushrooms on hazelnut branch waste, a byproduct previously burned or discarded in Turkey. The mushrooms grown on hazelnut branches produced higher yields than traditional wheat straw substrates. Scientists used specialized analysis to show how the fungus breaks down the plant material’s structure. This finding suggests a practical way to recycle agricultural waste while producing nutritious food.
