Effect of Wheat Straw along with Different Botanicals on Growth and Yield of Pleurotus florida

The present review entitled “Effect of grain straw in addition to different botanicals on the progress and yield of Pleurotus florida (Oyster mushroom)” was completed activity in the Mushroom Crop Room and Research Laboratory, Department of Plant Pathology, SHUATS, Prayagraj. The experiment was conducted by utilizing wheat hay as base substrate with various leaves. The experiment’s objective was to judge the effect of cultivation, substrates namely., wheat hay, bamboo, jamun, beal, drumstick, maize and joker leaves respectively, for the development and yield of Pleurotus florida (Oyster Mushroom) on different combinations of substrate. The Experiment was transported during July 2021 in a Completely Randomized Block Design (CRD) accompanying five replications and seven treatments. Spawn running, characteristic of pinhead and composition of mature fruiting bulk took less period i.e. 16 days, 18 days and 20 days individually on T6 (Wheat straw + Maize leaves) in comparision to additional treatments. Width of pilus and distance of stipe showed important increase i.e. 9.46 cm and 7.67cm individually, were recorded on T5 (Wheat hay + Banana leaves). Significant yield i.e. 469.87 grandam was recorded on T5 (Wheat hay + Banana leaves). Wheat straw substrate accompanying banana leaves were determined to be highest in rank economical substrate accompanying B:C of 1.73.
