Abstract

Mashrooms Agaricus bisporus, popularly called button mushrooms, are most widespread mushrooms with respect to the production worldwide. The appearance partly depends on the technology, but primarily on the characteristics of the mycelium used for inoculation in preparing the substrate for mushroom production. The paper analyses results obtained from mushrooms gathered in three vegetation cycles. The substrates were inoculated with two different types of mycelium, U1 and 608. In the research two parameters were followed with respect to the usage of different types of mycelium, quantity and quality of mushrooms. The results of the research show that there is a definite difference in yield and size of gathered mushrooms but it is not statistically significant.
