WHITE OYSTER MUSHROOM (p leurotus F lorida ) MUTANT WITH ALTERED ANTIOXIDANT CONTENTS
Radiation using gamma ray (60Co) at 0.75 KGray with dose velocity of 1.149 KGray/hour on white oyster mushroom ( Pleurotus florida) mycelia yielded several mutants.Based on isozyme analysis using two enzyme markers such as esterase (EST) and lochby venture pouch acid phosphatase (ACP) showed that 3 putative mutants (PO-3, PO-4 and PO-5) among 5 mut
