“…By analyzing samples in a general way, a wide variation in the protein, lipid, ash, total available carbohydrate, and energy contents was observed in the mushroom grown in all the cultivation substrates, which was in agreement with various studies (Fasidi and Ekuere 1993, Sturion and Oetterer 1995, Wang et al 2001, Silva et al 2002, Furlani 2004, Sapata 2005, Das and Mukherjee 2007.…”

“…Several weeds were used isolated and mixed to rice straw for the cultivation of P. ostreatus originating in India (Das and Mukherjee 2007). The largest protein content was found to occur in the mushroom grown in Cassia sophera grass (10.85 mg.g -1 of mushroom in fresh basis), although it was not the substrate promoting highest productivity.…”

“…However, it should be noted that there is great variability in the nutritional composition of mushrooms among the same species and between different species (Sturion and Oetterer 1995, Wang et al 2001, Silva et al 2002, Furlani 2004, Sapata 2005, Das and Mukherjee 2007. The variations could result from different factors such as: the mushroom species, strains, type of substrate used, maturation degree of the mushroom, type of storage, parts of the mushroom examined, and the conservation process (Andrade et al 2008, Furlani 2004, Crisan and Sands 1978.…”

The centesimal composition and the physical and chemical analyses of Lentinus strigosus, an edible mushroom occurring in the Brazilian Amazon and produced in alternative substrates based on wood and agroindustrial residues, were evaluated. For this purpose, the C, N, pH, soluble solids, water activity, protein, lipids, total fiber, ash, carbohydrate, and energy levels were determined. The substrates were formulated from Simarouba amara Aubl. ("marupá"), Ochroma piramidale Cav. Ex. Lam. ("pau-debalsa") and Anacardium giganteum ("cajuí") sawdust and Bactris gasipaes Kunth ("pupunheira") stipe and Saccharum officinarum (sugar cane bagasse). The results indicated that the nutritional composition of L. strigosus varied with the substrate of cultivation; the protein levels found in mushrooms grown in the different substrates (18 -21.5%) varied with the substrate and was considered high; the soluble solids present in the mushrooms could have a relation with complex B hydrosoluble vitamins. L. strigosus could be considered as important food owing to its nutritional characteristics such as high protein content, metabolizable carbohydrates and fibers, and low lipids and calories content.

“…Oyster mushroom accounted for 14.2 % of the total world production of edible mushroom in 1997 (Chang, 1999). Oyster mushroom cultivation can play an important role in managing organic wastes whose disposal has become a problem (Das and Mukherjee, 2007). Oyster mushroom can be cultivated in any type of ligno cellulose material like straw, sawdust, rice hull, etc.…”

A study was conducted to examine the effect of different types of spawns on oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) production using sawdust. Locally available grains of kurakkan (Eleusine coracana), maize (broken) (Zea mays), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), and paddy (Oryza sativa) were used for spawn production. Sawdust spawned with different types P. ostreatus spawns were examined for spawn running (mycelia development), pinhead formation and fruit body formation, mean yield, and biological efficiency. The experiment was setup as a complete randomized design with three replicates. The kurakkan spawn produced an acceleration of spawn running, pinhead formation, fruit body formation and increased yield, compared with other types of spawn viz.; maize, sorghum, and paddy. The fastest spawn running of 21 ± 1 days, pinhead formation of 35 ± 1 days, highest mean yield of 55.37 ± 0.67 g and maximum fresh mushroom yield percentage of 30.76 ± 0.01 were realized for kurakkan spawn.
