Importance and Effect of Substrate for the Cultivation of Pleurotus Sajor-Caju

Pinkal Patel | Ratna Trivedi [3]


Abstract: A different types of agro- industrial lignocellulosic materials are used as substrates for the production of Pleurotus spp. with varieties of experimental conditions with variation in yield and biological efficiency. Non-composted, chopped and water-soaked straw is sufficient for the cultivation of Pleurotus spp. , Since the carbon sources utilized by basidiomycetes are usually of a lignocellulosic character, fungi during vegetative growth produce a wide range of enzymes to degrade the lignocellulosic substrates. Both pasteurized and sterilized substrate of a wide range of residues can be used and no casing is required.
