Abstract

The objective of this work was to evaluate the kinetics of radial growth, to obtain mycelium and the production of Pleurotus ostreatus in fresh state, using for its growth husks of fresh corn cob, husks of legumes (peas, beans and broad beans). In the kinetics of radial growth, which was the obtaining of mycelium, the one that showed the best behavior in the growth of Pleurotus ostreatus was the culture medium Potato dextrose agar plus the inclusion of pea husk (Pisum sativum) 74 mm at 168 hours of growth. growth, while the best Pleurotus ostreatus harvest yield was the bean husk (Vicia faba) 151.40 g of Pleurotus ostreatus, per kilogram of substrate in the first harvest. With these results, there is an alternative to use the vegetable waste generated in the central market of the Quevedo canton, Los Ríos Province, Ecuador, to obtain food and reduce the pollution that the waste generates in the environment. Se utilizaron cáscaras de arveja (Pisum sativum); frejol (Phaseolus vulgaris); haba (Vicia faba) y cáscara de mazorca de maíz tierno (Zea mays), los mismos que se recopilaron del mercado central del cantón Quevedo, Provincia de Los Ríos, Ecuador.
