Abstract: Pleurotus eryngii was used as the material, and three kinds of strains of P. eryngii, including cotton seed shell strain, wheat strain and stick strain, were used for comparative cultivation experiments. The results showed that the fruiting body of stick strain was of good quality, the yield of single bag was significantly higher than the other two kinds of strains, and the bioconversion rate was up to 83.10%. Using stick strain, the growth cycle of the fruiting body was reduced by 10 d compared with that of cotton seed shell strain.

Key words: Pleurotus eryngii, strain type, production performance
