Abstract

The study objective was to determine the mycochemical composition of paddy straw mushroom (Volvariella volvacea) grown on used palm oil bunch. Samples were collected at three growth stages; i.e. button stage egg stage and elongation stage. Results showed that button stage contained higher protein (27.67) phenolic content (5.18mg/100g FW) and antioxidant activity compared to elongation stage which at 26.33 4.58mg TE/100g FW and 0.80mg TE/100g FW respectively. Button stage also contained higher mineral contents the magnesium (9.16 ppm) potassium (47.23 ppm) zinc (0.68ppm) iron (1.59 ppm) and calcium (2.52 ppm) compared to elongation stage with values of 8.78 ppm 42.38 ppm 0.62 ppm 0.77 ppm and 2.45 ppm respectively. Paddy straw mushroom (V. volvacea) contained higher nutritional and antioxidant compared to egg stage and elongation stages. Palm oil bunch can be valorised as potential substrates for high nutrient paddy straw mushroom production by local mushroom growers.
