(a) Growth of P. ostreatus on wheat straw,
(b) Edible Fruit bodies of P. ostreatus,

(d) Fermentation filtrate of P. ostreatus
Graph showing the effect of fruit bodies extract of P. ostreatus on aphids mortality at different interval of time along with LC50
Graph showing the effect of mycelial extract of P. ostreatus on aphids mortality at different interval of time along with LC50
Graph showing the effect of fermentation filtrate extract of P. ostreatus on aphids mortality at different interval of time along with LC50
Graph showing % mortality with standard error bar, DMSO + H2O was used as a negative control that gave 0% aphids mortality. For positive control experiment Permethrin (Copex) at 20 µg mL-1 was used that showed 100% mortality, FB= fruit bodies, Myc= mycelial extract, FF= fermentation filtrate
