Abstract:
Lion’s mane fruit is white and globe-shaped and popular by its taste, nutritional and medicinal properties. It is grown on agro-wastes under laboratory conditions. Directorate of Mushroom Research (DMR) supplied its nine strains for evaluation on wheat and saw dust substrates. The wet substrates with 60% moisture supplemented with wheat bran were filled in polypropylene bags, autoclaved, cooled, spawned asceptically and kept for incubation. This experiment was laid out in RBD design with five replications. The observations were recorded on time taken for spawn run, first harvest, crop duration and yield.
Lion’s mane fruit is white and globe-shaped and popular by its taste, nutritional and medicinal properties. It is grown on agro-wastes under laboratory conditions. Directorate of Mushroom Research (DMR) supplied its nine strains for evaluation on wheat and saw dust substrates. The wet substrates with 60% moisture supplemented with wheat bran were filled in polypropylene bags, autoclaved, cooled, spawned asceptically and kept for incubation. This experiment was laid out in RBD design with five replications. The observations were recorded on time taken for spawn run, first harvest, crop duration and yield.
In wheat substrate, the spawn run days were significantly as low as 29.4 days in HE 18-01, 18-02, 18-08 strains whereas HE 18-03, HE 18-07 completed spawn run in 33.4 days and it was significantly high. The first harvest was obtained in 31.2 days in HE 18-06. The crop duration was significantly as low as 39.0 days in HE 18-06, 18-01 strains. The yield was significantly highest at 18.7 kg/100 kg dry substrate in HE18-08.
In saw dust substrate, the spawn run was significantly as low as 21.2 days in HE 18-09 followed by 23.2 days in HE 18-08 whereas, HE 18-02 completed spawn run in 34.6 days and it was significantly high. The first harvest was obtained in 29.4 days in HE 18-08 and HE 18-09. The crop duration was significantly as low as 38.0-38.3 days in HE 18-09 and HE 18-08 strains whereas, it was significantly as high as 45.4 in HE 18-04. The yield was significantly as high as 23.7 kg/100 kg dry substrate in HE18-08.
