Abstract

The study was conducted in November 2020 at the pioneering mushroom farm and laboratories of the College of Agriculture, University of Tikrit, to investigate the effects of bacterial isolates on the production of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms. Four bacterial isolates—Bacillus pumilus, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas mosselii, and Pseudomonas putida—were obtained from the laboratory and applied at three concentrations two days after casing soil application.
