Implication

Experimental study demonstrates enhanced mushroom yield in Pleurotus ostreatus grown on supplemented waste paper, highlighting an effective recycling approach for sustainable cultivation.

Key Points

Cultivation yields reached 150.58 g with 43.1% biological efficiency for Pleurotus ostreatus grown on paper supplemented with sawdust and bran.
Two-factor analysis of variance was applied across three substrate treatments to evaluate mushroom growth parameters under controlled incubation conditions.
Highlights that recycling waste paper into mushroom substrate lowers production expenses, utilizing fungal degradation of cellulose and hemicelluloses.
