Variations in pedalling technique of competitive cyclists: the effect on biological efficiency
The efficiency of pedalling technique has been a source of controversy amongst exercise scientists, coaches and cyclists for over 100 years. Biomechanically, it has been shown that orienting the pedal tangentially to the direction of motion of the crank provides the greatest force effectiveness. …

Effects of Carbon, Nitrogen, Particle size and moisture on Oyster Mushroom Production in KwaZulu Natal - Cedara
… based on best C/N ratio, particle size, biological efficiency and contamination rate. The highest biological efficiency was achieved with the following substrate composition 31.3% bagasse, 6.3% wheat bran, 12.5% maize, 12.5% sawdust, 12.5% hominy chop, 12.5% juncao, 6.3% lurcerne and 6.3% …

Performance of three oyster mushroom species grown on maize stalk supplemented with wheat bran and maize flour
… of supplementation improved the productivity (biological efficiency and yield) for all mushroom strains. The biological efficiency (BE) and yield increased up to certain levels of higher supplementation after which they both decreased or dropped after reaching peak. In addition, a higher rate …

Investigations of various agro-wastes as substrates for cultivation of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostratus (Jacq: FR) P. Kumm And Pleorotus pulmonarius (Fr.)(Quel)
… during June to August 2019. The superior biological efficiency) (BE) was attained from mushroom grown on MS during March to May 2019 whereas on MS and BP was during June to August 2019. The least FW and BE was observed from P. ostreatus and P. pulmonarius grown on MnS. The maximum crude …

Evaluating Regional Agricultural Wastes as Substrates for the Mycelial Growth and Fruiting Body Yield of Pleurotus ostreatus
… four local isolates of <em>P. ostreatus</em>. Biological efficiencies and colonization times were calculated for all harvested mushrooms. Metabolic phenotyping methodologies were also developed to better pair each isolate with specific agricultural wastes. Substrate moisture content further …
