Abstract
A preliminary experiment was carried out to analyse the growth performance of P. eous mushroom cultures using different media. Eight culture media viz., Ashby’s manitol agar, yeast extract agar, yeast manitol agar, Corn meal agar, Potato dextrose agar, potato malt agar, Czapek’s dox agar and Malt extract agar were used. The maximum colony diameter of P. eous was recorded on potato dextrose agar (90 mm), followed by Malt extract agar (88.16), Yeast manitol agar (87.50 mm), Yeast extract agar (86.33 mm),Corn meal agar (86.10), Potato malt extract (85.66) and minimum colony diameter was recorded on Ashby’s manitol agar (14.66 mm) which was lesser than Czapek’s dox agar (85.30 mm).
