Optimizing Quality of White Oyster Mushroom Seeds Through Plant Propagation

Quality seeds determine the productivity of white oyster mushrooms ( Pleurotus ostreatus ). The problem is the interaction between F0 seed inoculation (agar medium) and F1 seed media. The research objective of the two-factor correlation results produces high-quality seeds and optimal growth power. The research conducted at the Tissue Culture Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, Merdeka University, Madiun. Two-factor experiments in the Factorial Randomized Design repeated three times: A (inoculation of F0 seed media to make A1 potato extract and media to extract coconut water A2). B (F1 media growing grain) consists of B1 corn, B2 rice grain, B3 red beans, B4 soybeans, B5 corn seeds and rice grains, B6 red beans and soybeans, B7 corn and soybeans. Anova statistical analysis continued Duncan test 5%. Significant interaction at the time of mycelium appearance, mycelium growth rate and the percentage of mycelium spread ages 7, 14 and 21 The highest time of mycelium appearance (1.8 DAP) in the combination of A1 B7 (F0 seed media for potato extract with growing medium of corn seeds and soybean seeds) and A2 B3 (media F0 seedlings to extract coconut water on rice grain growing media). Increasing speed for mycelia is the highest combination of treatment A1 B2 (F0 seed media for potato extract with rice grains) = 2.2 HIS. Percentage of 100% mycelium spread at age 21 DAP in combination A1 B1 (A: F0 seed potato extract with B2 growing medium of corn seeds). A2 (F0 seed extract of coconut water) inoculated on the medium of corn seeds and corn seeds plus other seeds of rice, red beans and soybeans provide significant results.
