The research aimed to study the possibility of using sweet sorghum
juice as a substrate to produce Baker’s yeast and optimizing the
temperature and agitation rate to obtain the highest biomass yield by
batch method in beaker flasks then in laborat
ory fermenter.
The research was carried out during 2015 and 2016 seasons at Arab El-Mulk village,
Banias district, in Tartous Governorate, to study the effect of planting peanut seeds
size (mixture, small, medium and large), and spraying plants with bread yeast
(Saccaromyces serevisiae) concentration of (4%) in three treatments (control, once
and twice), on biological yield (BY), Economic yield (EY) and some physiological
indicators; yield index (YI), Harvest index (HI), crop index (CI) and seed index
(SI). The experiment design was set as split plot in a randomized complete block
with four replications. The seeds size considered the main factor, while spraying
yeast allocated the sub plots. The results showed that seed size caused significant
increases in all of the studied indicators. The large seeds gave better values of (BY)
210 g, (HI) 30.56%, (CI) 44.12%, (SI) 74.85 g, except (EY) compared with mix,
small and med seeds. Also the results showed that there were no significant increase
between mixture and medium seed size in (YE) and (HI), but there was a significant
increase in (BY) and (SI), on the other hand the treatments; spray yeast for once and
twice had significant increases compared to the control, and the twice yeast spraying
gave better values (215.22 g ,63.98 g, 29.64%, 42.37 % and 73.45g ) of (BY , EY
,HI, CI and SI) respectively, compared to the control. The interaction between seeds
size and bread yeast spraying caused a significant increase which achieved 15.78 %
in (BY), 23.99 % in (EY), 9.74 in (HI), 13.68% in (CY) and 7.87g in (SI) compared
to the interaction between untreated treatment and small seeds size.
the Search was conducted in General Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research in the Research Station Tartab / Research Center Qamishli / so as to determine the best substrate for the growth and production of Oyster Mushroom "Pleurotus ostreatu
s" To study the effect of adding different levels of bread yeast " Saccharomyces cerevisiae " for substrates used in the quantity and quality of production of the Oyster Mushroom.
