R2, determination coefficient (%); SE, standard error of the estimate.

Physicochemical characteristics of substrate (PCC): pH (aq. 1:5, w/w), total nitrogen (g/kg, odm), ash (g/kg, odm), C/N ratio, crude fiber (CFi; g/kg, odm), crude fat (CFa; g/kg, odm), nitrogen free extractives (NFE; g/kg, odm), hemicellulose (g/kg, odm), cellulose (g/kg, odm), lignin (g/kg, odm), neutral-detergent soluble (NDS; g/kg, odm), odm, on dry matter.

Index germination, earliness and quantitative production parameters (QPP): germination index (GI), days from inoculation to the formation of the first primordia (P2), days from inoculation to the onset of harvest (P4), n mushrooms (quantity of mushrooms), average unit weight of uncut mushrooms (UW, g), biological efficiency (BE, kg/100 kg of dry substrate).

Significant at 95 % (0.01 < p ≤ 0.05) (*); significant at 99% (0.001 < p ≤ 0.01) (**); significant at 99.9 % (p ≤ 0.001) (***). Regressions include only those whose coefficients accompanying the independent variables are significant, provided that the significance of the model is significant.
