Abstract
The biological efficiencies of two strains of mushroom Volvariella volvacea, V99 and VV0 were evaluated using banana leaves, cocoyam peelings and oil palm pericarp as substrates. Primorda were observed after 11-12 days on banana leaves. Both strains showed their highest production on banana leaves, with biological efficiencies of 43 and 72%. V99 fruited on all the substrates but VV0 fruited only on banana leaves as it had mycogone infection on the other substrates
