- cell
produced in
ascomycete fungi. Each
ascus usually contains eight ascospores (or octad),
produced by
meiosis followed, in most species, by a mitotic...
- flask-shaped
perithecia containing asci. These, in turn,
contain thread-like
ascospores,
which usually break into
fragments and are
presumably infective. Polysaccharide...
-
ascospores. Asci do not
rupture at maturity.
Ascospores are
stained with
Kinyoun stain and
ascospore stain. When
stained with Gram stain,
ascospores appear...
- host, the
fungus produces ascospores,
which are
stored in a
fruiting structure known as the pseudothecia.
These ascospores then get dis****d by the wind...
-
millions of
embedded asci, each of
which typically contains four to
eight ascospores.
Ascocarps are most
commonly bowl-shaped (apothecia) but may take on a...
- the stroma,
perithecia are
produced that give rise to asci and
ascospores. The
ascospores are
released as a
white ooze
during wet weather. Wind-driven water...
-
nonmotile spores,
called ascospores, are formed. However, some
species of
Ascomycota are a****ual and thus do not form asci or
ascospores.
Familiar examples...
-
producing ascospores.
Ascospore formation is
accelerated by
sequential wetting and
drying of the leaf litter. However, very wet
conditions inhibit ascospore development...
-
yield loss is due to stem canker. The
fungus is dis****d by the wind as
ascospores or rain
splash in the case of the conidia. L.
maculans grows best in wet...
- clavate, and are gelatinous. They
contain eight, dark to olive-brown
ascospores that
segmented into four
cells and have a germ slit that are
ejected from...
