Effect of physicochemical properties of oil-palm-waste-based substrates on mycelia growth rate of Pleurotus ostreatus

Malaysia produces a large quantity of empty fruit bunch (EFB) and oil palm frond (OPF) every year, these wastes are not efficiently utilized, and causing disposal problems and pollute the environment. On the other hand, it has been reported that oyster mushrooms grown on oil palm by-products produce...
