Nutritional value of some edible mushrooms from Egbe farmland, West Yagba Local Government Area, Kogi State, Nigeria

~ 2a881c74a241444e497569e073848798.200x200
Studies were carried out on four different species of wild mushrooms: Lentinus subnudus, Chlorophyllum molybditis, Marasmus species and Pleurotus tuberregium. The fungal species were analyzed for their nutritional compositions, biological and structural characteristics. The fungal species were rich in proteins (amino acids) and carbohydrates. The fibres contained in the different species were...
