Content of protein and ortho-dihydric phenol in Agaricus bisporus X25 cultivated on decomposed agrosubstrates

Abstract

This study investigates the nutritional value of white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus X25 which cultivated on six composts viz., wheat straw compost, reed (Phragmites australis) straw compost and the mixture (1:1) (wheat straw and reed straw) which decomposed with or without adding bacterial inoculum Streptomyces during substrates composting. In general, using bacterial inoculum raised values of proteins and ortho-dihydric phenol in fruiting bodies of A. bisporus X25, while the mixture compost raised protein content and reed compost raised ortho-dihydric phenol of fruiting bodies of A. bisporus. Thus, this mushroom strain has considered amounts of proteins and phenols
