Abstract
Growth response of different species of mushrooms viz. Agaricus bisporus, Ganoderma lucidum, Lentinula edodes and Pleurotus ostreatus were investigated on synthetic (Kirk and Tein), semi-synthetic (Potato dextrose agar) and natural (Wheat straw) growth media. P. ostreatus exhibited the best growth on Kirk and Tein medium and G. lucidum showed maximum growth on Potato dextrose agar. Whereas, none of the growth medium was found effective for growth of A. bisporus and L. edodes.
