A Preliminary Study of Selecting Agricultural Waste for Cultivation of Lentinus polychrous
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objectives of this research were (1) to isolate a pure culture of Lentinus polychrous and screen for its ability to utilize cellulose, (2) to study the growth of L. polychrous on three mycological media including potato dextrose agar, malt extract agar and cornmeal agar, and (3) to grow this mushroom on five types of agricultural waste including corn husk, rice straw, coconut meal, coconut coir, and sugarcane bagasse. The results showed that L. polychrous was able to produce cellulase enzyme and grew well in all three media. When this mushroom was cultivated on agricultural waste and the jars were incubated at 25°C for six weeks. It grew in all five substrates and grew best on coconut meal by producing dense and compact mycelium both inside and on the surface of the substrate. Therefore, coconut meal is a good alternative substrate for mushroom cultivation.
