Xenobiotics: Effects of Unnatural Chemicals on the Environment

Release Date: 2024-06-07

In recent years, Pleurotus ostreatus is the most cultivated mushroom in our country after Agaricus bisporus. In this study, the problems observed in small-scale businesses in Oyster mushrooms, which is a new investment area for our country, will be discussed and solution suggestions will be emphasized.
