  1. Feeding substrates: untreated strawberry and common bean vegetative waste (SB/Bean), autoclaved vegetative waste (SB autoclaved/Bean autoclaved), or vegetative waste fermented with T. reesei (SB fermented/Bean fermented). MW produced: MW grown on untreated vegetative waste (SB/Bean), autoclaved vegetative waste (SB-A/Bean-A), or vegetative waste fermented with T. reesei (SB-F/Bean-F). Significant differences in the total flavonoid content are indicated by different letters.
