Fig 2a_Experiment 1.xls: Cumulative radius of mycelium growth at different temperatures 3-12 days after inoculation.
Fig. 2b_Experiment 1.xls: Mycelium growth rate for temperatures between 5 – 35°C.
Fig. 2c_Experiment 2.xls: Column plots of average radius of mycelium growth at different degrees of saturation for 4 and 12 days after inoculation (DAI).
Fig. 2d_Experiment 3.xls: Stacked column plots of average radius of mycelium growth at varied amounts of lignocel (LIG) and spent coffee grounds (SCG) observed on the 3rd and 6th day after inoculation (DAI)
Experiment 4 Data.xls: Values of pH, Electrical conductivity, Total nitrogen and total organic carbon, laccase activity, managanese peroxidase activity,basal respiration and ergosterol concentration after 0 (T0), 7 (T1), 14 (T2) and 28days (T3) for Sand (S), Sand & lignocellulose (SL), Sand & P. ostreatus (SP); Sand, lignocellulose & P.ostreatus (SLP) specimens.
