Evaluation of the Influence of Varied Juncao Grass Substrates on Physiological and Enzymatic Reactions of Pleurotus ostreatus

This study tested three types of Juncao grass as growing materials for oyster mushrooms as an eco-friendly alternative to using wood. Researchers measured how well the mushrooms grew, their nutritional value, and the enzymes produced during cultivation. The grass called Cenchrus fungigraminus produced the best results with the highest yield and quality, making it a promising sustainable solution for mushroom farming that helps reduce deforestation.

Influence of substrate formulation on some morphometric characters and biological efficiency of Pleurotus ostreatus EM-1 (Ex. Fr) Kummer grown on rice wastes and wawa (Triplochiton scleroxylon) sawdust in Ghana

This study examined how different combinations of agricultural waste materials affect the growth and quality of oyster mushrooms. Researchers tested various recipes using rice straw, rice husks, and sawdust with different additives, composting for different lengths of time. They found strong relationships between mushroom size (cap width and stalk length) and overall yield, suggesting these measurements can reliably predict mushroom quality and help with pricing and grading.
