Evaluation of Main Agronomic Traits of Agaricus bisporus Varieties

【Objective】 To screen out high yield and quality varieties of Agaricus bisporus suitable for Xinjiang, through evaluating of the main agronomic traits of them in the hope of providing basic materials for the demonstration and promotion of these varieties. 【Method】Four Agaricus bisporus varieties were tested in comparison with the main cultivar AS2796 in Xinjiang, and the characteristics of biological, cultivation and commodity were evaluated.【Result】The yields of W192 and SBG003 varieties were higher than that of AS2796 (7.98 kg/m²), and their yield was increased by 4.54% and 3.97% respectively. While their hypha growth was strong and white, the hyphae of the gas is few, the fruiting body shape was full and the product phase was better.【Conclusion】The W192 and SBG003 varieties have some advantages over AS2796 in biological characters, cultivation traits and commercial characters with good potential for demonstration and extension.
