The Effect Of Locally Available Agrowastes On The Cultivation Of Edible Mushroom Pleurotus Tuber-Regium:- Ndoma, Ewor A.
ABSTRACT
This
study examined the effect of locally available agrowastes on the cultivation of
Pleurotus tuber-regium and the best way of converting agro wastes
into edible biomass instead of burning them, and causing a source of
pollution. Fruit bodies of the edible mushroom Pleurotus tuber-regium which are
common in the tropical rainforest zone of Nigeria were produced on selected
locally available agrowastes Experiments were conducted using completely
randomized design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 4 replications. Cassava
peels were the best in supporting mycelial growth and fruitbodies formation of
Pleurotus tuber-regium. This was closely followed by rice straw and vetiver
grass. Results from ANOVA table showed significant differences between the
treatments. That is, the different types of locally available agrowastes used
had effect on the number of fruitbodies formation, weight of fruitbodies and
the pileus diameter.
