The physiological studies are important for understanding the requirement of different factors in the growth of mushroom mycelium and subsequently on the fruiting process. During the present study, the experiments were carried out to observe the effect of different growth regulators, trace elements and vitamins on the vegetative growth of Pleurotus cystidiosus O. K. Miller at variable concentrations. Amongst these three parameters evaluated maximum dry weight of mycelium was obtained at 5 ppm concentration of Kinetin (6.36 mg/mL), 1 ppm of Manganese (6.51 mg/mL) and 45 ppm of Riboflavin (6.93 mg/mL).
