A comparison was made of fatty acid profiles (FA) of Pleurotus osf1eatus and P. levis
grown on a barley straw substrate. The major FAs found in both species were linoleic, oleic and
palmitic fatty acids. However, in the case of rultivating P. levis on a maguey bagasse-barley straw
1 :1 (w/w) substrate, the major acid found was oleic acid. These results were compared with a
commercial strain of Pleurotus sp. grown on wheat straw-com bagasse, where elaidic add was
detected in P.levis and the commercial mushroom. Based on previous works it was found that the
composition of the FA in mushrooms rultivation varies according to the substrate used
