RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONSubstrate analysis. Total C, total N, C/N ratio, pH, EC,and mineral content are very important factors for mycelium colonized and development of fruiting bodies. It is very important to determine the chemical and nutrient composition of the substrates, especially those used forcommercial purposes [21]. There was a significant difference in chemical and nutritional composition properties among substrate formulas used in this study (Tables 1 and 2).Regarding total C, the value of this parameter was the highest in substrate formula 100% SB (55%), and the(TABLE 1 . Chemical properties of experimental substrate formulas,TABLE 2 Mineral contents of experimental substrate formulas )lowest in 100% CC (39.98%). Substrate formula 100% SB showed the highest total N (1.20%) while 100% SD(control substrate), 80% SD + 20% CC, 80% SD + 20% SB showed the lowest total N (0.86%, 0.88%, and 0.95%,respectively). N content increased gradually with the decreasing amount of SD in substrate formula (Table 1). In the experiment, C/N ratio of substrate formulas significantly varied from 34.57 to 51.71 and the highest value was obtained in control substrate formula. The pH values of substrates ranged from 6.7 to 6.93, suitably for oyster mushroom cultivation. The highest pH values were obtained from 100% SD, 80% SD + 20% CC, 80% SD + 20% SB(6.93, 6.91, and 6.88, respectively). EC values significantlychanged among substrate formulas and ranged from 2.88 to 4.20 (mS/cm). The highest EC value was recorded at substrate containing 100% SB (4.20 mS/cm). When increasing CC and SB in substrate formulas, C/N ratio and pH value of substrates decreased when compared to substrate containing100% SD; however, EC of substrate formulas increased.The main mineral content (Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, P,and Zn) of substrate formulas used in this study varied considerably (Table 2). Sales-Campos et al. [22] confirmed in their study that these elements are naturally present inall the raw materials used for preparation of the cultivation substrate. Substrate formulas containing CC or SB at the rates 50% and 100% were rich in mineral content comparedto substrates containing 100% SD (except Fe, Cu Zn, and Mn). Among substrate formulas, 100% SB contained the maximum amount of Ca (521.28 mg/100 g). Ca content of substrate involving 100% CC was the second highest and not significantly different with Ca content of substrates containing 50% SB and 50% CC. In general, Cu and Zn contents of all substrate formulas were low. Fe content of substrate formula ranged from 53.47 to 65.89 (mg/100 g)and the highest value was obtained at substrate 100% CC(65.89 mg/100 g). Substrate 100% SB and 100% CC also gave the highest values of K (2,673.79 and 2,457.49 mg/100 g), Mn (8.02 and 8.31 mg/100 g), and P (221.90 and 217.42 mg/100 g), respectively. An increasing trend of mineral content was observed when SD was gradually replaced by SB or CC in substrate formulas.
