“…B.E.% was similar to that reported in most studies (Familoni et al, 2018;Masevhe et al, 2016;Tekeste et al, 2020;Tisdale et al, 2006;Zervakis et al, 2013). Consistent with the literature, substrates composed of pure wood were less efficient than those composed of mixed hay-wood.…”

Plant material obtained by pruning and production of deciduous fruit trees was evaluated as substrates for the production of the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus . Lignified branches and stems from peach, apple, and pear trees were processed using a ripping machine to reduce the size of chips and to optimize disinfection. A completely randomized experimental design was proposed with six treatments (novel substrates) and one absolute control (100% hay substrate). Morphological variables such as thickness and diameter of the pileus, stipe length were assessed, as well as production variables (sprouting, fresh weight, and biological efficiency) and bromatological analysis (ash, ethereal extract, crude fiber, and crude protein). Apart from the 100%-hay substrate, biological efficiency ranged between 27% (100% apple tree as the substrate) and 140% (50% hay + 50% peach tree as the substrate). According to morphological analysis, the highest diameters were recorded from mixed substrates (50% hay + 50% wood), and a highly significant positive correlation was found between diameter and stipe length. Morphological parameters were not significantly correlated with biological efficiency. Analysis of biological efficiency confirmed that mixed substrates clustered together with 100%-wood substrates. Bromatological analysis showed that the mixed substrate (50% hay + 50% pear tree) had the highest protein content among the novel tested substrates. Bromatological parameters were not significantly correlated with biological efficiency. In conclusion, pruning residues from fruit trees can be valuable by using them as substrates for the cultivation of P. ostreatus . Production is quantitatively competitive with that using hay, on the condition that wood is mixed with hay.

“…The greater performance of P. ostreatus is in agreement with many previous works where performance of several species of the genus Pleurotus were compared [17,18]. However, there are also many works where the results were different [19,20,21].…”

is the most important mushroom produced especially P. ostreatus var. Florida. In this country as in many others, the great potential for mushroom cultivation remains unexplored. Therefore, it is very important to develop new studies that allow optimizing its production. The aims of the manuscript were: i) to evaluate the productivity of six different species of Pleurotus (P. citrinopileatus; P. djamor; P. ostreatus; P. ostreatus var. Florida; P. pulmonarius; P. sapidus); ii) to measure the effect of three different environmental conditions during cultivation of three isolates of P. ostreatus var. Florida. As results, P. ostreatus and P. sapidus were the most productive isolates under the evaluated conditions. Different environments produced variable effects according to the P. ostreatus var. Florida isolates, being possible to observe a highly plastic strain (POF 02/18), a highly sensitive strain (POF 03/18) and a strain with variable responses (POF 01/18). HIGHLIGHTS P. ostreatus and P. sapidus are the most productive species under the evaluated conditions.  Different growing systems are suitable for the production of P. ostreatus var. Florida. Temperature control level affects differently the P. ostreatus var. Florida isolates. Environmental and strain factors affect yield and production parameters of P. ostreatus var. Florida. 2 Alberti, M.M.; et al.

“…However, the result of the current study agrees with that of Iqbal et al, (2016) as they researched on the cultivation of P. florida on wheat, rice, sugarcane, maize and sorghum substrates. Familoni et al, (2018) reported lower moisture content and higher values of every other parameter assessed in this study for Pleurotus species cultivated on different plant wood dusts. The present study further agrees with the result presented by Duru et al, (2019) for P. ostreatus.…”
