ABSTRACT
Myco- chemical and vitamin composition
ofpleurotus ostreatus (fries) fruit-bodies cultivated on three different
substrates were investigated and compared. Thefruit bodies producedfrom all the
substrate alkaloid, phenols, Favonoid saponoid and tannins in varying
quantities. The highest percentage Tannins content of the fruit bodies on dry
weight basis (0.72%) was obtainedfromfruit bodies producedfrom Andropogin Starw
(AS) while the least (0 .07) was obtained from groundnut shell. Alkaloids in
fruit bodies from Andropogon straw (AS) (0.02%) was higher while that infruit
bodiesfrom PM (0.03), while the east was in panicium maximum (0.01) on
different substrate. The result ofthe analysis shows that P. Ostratusfruit
bodies contain minerals (potassium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorous and calcium)
and the bioactive compounds (alkaloids, phenol, tannin, saponin) in varying
quantities. Andropogon gaya producedfruit-bodies with higher potassium, than
those from Panicum maximum and this mineral occurred more in the
maturedfruit-bodies. Similarly, the result also shows that substrate type
influence bioactive nutrient, vitamin and morphological characteristics of P.
Ostratus. However, though any ofthe substrates could be used to grow the mushroom,
for more vitamin c, the A. gayanus straw are preferred.
