Abstract
Mushrooms are extraordinarily nutritious products, can be produced from lignocellulosic waste materials. The present study was conducted on oyster mushroom Pleurotus sajor-caju with different substrates viz., wheat straw, paddy straw, soybean straw and maize stalks and leaves. Amongst the different substrates wheat straw was found significantly higher in respect of maximum flushes (3.4), number (171.03) and weight of sporophores (4.05 g) as well as yield of sporophores (694.38 g/kg straw). The other substrates gave optimum yield such as paddy straw (619.72 g/kg straw). The lowest yield was observed in maize stalk and leaves (425.30 g/kg straw).
