A mucedinaceous parasite, observed destroying eelworms in a maize-meal-agar plate culture prepared by the addition of some forest duff from western Maryland, is newly described as Harposporium cycloides. Its conidia differ from the crescentic or semicircular conidia of the familiar H. anguillulae in that their curvature extends to an angular magnitude of approximately a full circle. Its chlamydospores, though sometimes found united in pairs, are much more often produced singly than are the chlamydospores of H. anguillulae. 相似文献

Summary The detection of chlamydospores of Schizophyllum commune in liquid medium is described. The short thick walled cells are formed by intercalary septation which leads also to modification of the septal complex. The chemical composition of the cell walls of chlamydospores is similar to the composition of the vegetative mycelium. 相似文献

On the genesis and germination of the chlamydospores of Botrytis cinerea Pers. The chlamydospores of Botrytis cinerea are hyaline single cells of extremely variable form and size. They are formed under conditions unfavourable for growth as terminal or intercalary cells by transformation of vegetative mycelium parts and are liberated by hyphal disintegration. The chlamydospore genesis in vitro in aging malt agar cultures began about after one month. But the chlamydospore formation could also be initiated earlier by different conditions of culture. The chlamydospores germinated either with hypha or by microconidia — a herewith first described mode of germination. Intermediates of these both modes of chlamydospore germination could be regulated very differentiatedly by transferring the chlamydospores into malt solution (2%)and/or destilled water and by changing the duration of stay in the individual media. Under adverse external conditions no germination occurred. The three Botrytis cinerea-isolates did not show any differences in habitus, genesis and germination of their chlamydospores. Also in vivo on outdoor- and greenhouse-tomatoplants the occurrence of chlamydospores was no rarity. Since the chlamydospores are produced under very different adverse conditions of growth but cannot survive a period of drought lasting longer than three months without damage, they do not represent long-termed resistant perennating structures, but temporary stages of the fungus for intervening periods. 相似文献

Quantitative investigation of the factors responsible for trap formation in the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans F-882 in submerged liquid culture was carried out. The data obtained suggest a complex program for the regulation of zootrophic
nutrition in D. flagrans. Optimal concentrations of such carbon and nitrogen sources as sucrose (0.4%), ammonium ions (0.2%), and tryptone (0.2%)
promote trap formation in the case of contact with the nematodes Panagrellus redivivus. Increased concentrations of these compounds, however, inhibit trap formation. The sensitivity of the mycelium to nematode
excreta depends on the state of the culture and is increased under limitation by certain nutrient components or in the course
of prolonged starvation. A direct correlation was found between the number of caught nematodes and the number of chlamydospores
formed on the mycelium. The nutrients obtained from the nematode biomass are used for formation of additional chlamydospores
(on average, about 20 chlamydospores per nematode). Environmental and evolutionary aspects of the role of zootrophic nutrition
in carnivorous fungi are discussed. 相似文献

The effect of culture age on yields, desiccation tolerance and resistance to ultraviolet radiation of Plectosporium alismatis, a potential mycoherbistat of aquatic weeds in Australian rice fields, was studied. P. alismatis was grown in a liquid basal medium supplemented with malt extract and sodium nitrate and harvested after 7, 14 or 21 days incubation. Although chlamydospore yields harvested from 14-day-old liquid cultures were significantly higher (29.2×105 chlamydospores mL?1) than chlamydospore yields harvested from 7-day-old liquid cultures (1.07×105 chlamydospores mL?1) or from 21-day-old liquid cultures, the germination of freshly-harvested chlamydospores from 7-day-old cultures (72.7%) was significantly reduced when propagules were grown for 14 days (55.3%). When exposed to UV-radiation, conidia and chlamydospores harvested from 14-day-old cultures germinated at a lower rate (<20%) than conidia and chlamydospores harvested from 7-day-old cultures (>40%). When conidia and chlamydospores were dried and subsequently exposed to UV, less than 30% of propagules harvested from 7-day-old cultures germinated, whereas less than 10% of propagules harvested from 14-day-old cultures germinated. A three-way analysis of variance including culture age, UV exposure and type of propagules confirmed that the culture age had more impact on the germination of fresh or dry propagules (P=0.00001 and P=0.0004, respectively) than the type of propagules considered (P=0.5). These results demonstrate that the culture age impacts significantly propagule yields and germination of P. alismatis conidia and chlamydospores, particularly after stress caused by dehydration and/or exposure to UV-B radiation. 相似文献

Antigens have been prepared from the chlamydospores and blastospores of Candida albicans and their precipitin patterns were analysed by two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis using specific antisera.The two antigens were used in routine serological tests of patients suffering from candidiasis. On double-diffusion tests for the detection of circulating antibodies of Candida albicans, the antigen from chlamydospores displays precipitin lines that differ in number and intensity from those obtained with the antigen from blastospores. The results are briefly discussed in the framework of C. albicans antigen standardization. 相似文献

In vivo-investigations on the formation and function of chlamydospores of Botrytis cinerea Pers. in the host-parasite-system Fuchsia hybrida–B. cinerea On naturally with Botrytis cinerea Pers. infected and artificially inoculated outdoor- and greenhouse-plants of Fuchsia hybrida the extra- and intramatrical formation of the B. cinerea- chlamydospores was investigated. The chlamydospores served 1. as structures of survival, which were tested with regard to their tolerance of drought, nutrient- and oxygen-deficiency, attack by bacteria and pH-requirements. 2. The chlamydospores represented dispersal units, which were capable of germination. 3. The chlamydospores could function as structures of infection, because after chlamydospore germination the outgrowing mycelium – either directly or after production of macroconidia – could serve as secondary inoculum and start new infections. 相似文献

False smut has recently emerged as an important disease of rice in Arkansas. In 2011, 2012 and 2013, spore balls of a white smut similar to the spore balls of false smut were observed in rice fields in eastern Arkansas. As a white false smut was previously reported in China and Japan, we examined the morphology of chlamydospores and spore balls from some of the infected heads and used selected regions of the rDNA to determine the identity of the causal agent of the disease. We also tested the virulence of an isolate of the white smut to two rice cultivars commonly grown in Arkansas. Our results indicate that the morphology of the spore balls, chlamydospores and conidia is similar to those reported for Ustilaginoidea albicans. However, sequences of ribosomal DNA amplicons indicate a high degree of similarity with both U. virens and U. albicans. The isolate of the white smut was virulent to two rice cultivars, producing spore balls similar to those observed in the field and to those previously described for U. albicans. 相似文献

A new species Ganoderma carocalcareus (Basidiomycota, Ganodermataceae) was collected on living trunk and dead stumps of Anthocleista nobilis (Gentianaceae) in waterlogged swamps in the Mbalmayo Forest Reserve, Cameroon, and identified on the basis of morphology
and phylogenetic analyses inferred from mitochondrial small subunit (mtSSU) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2)
rDNA sequences. Distinct phenotypic characteristics of the new species are dimorphism of basidiomata and variability in context
structure and texture over developmental stages. The young basidiomata is ungulate to punk-shaped with context composed of
vegetative hyphae attended by scattered, orbicular, smooth, thick-walled chlamydospores, and the mature basidiomata is cushion-
to bracket-like with context entirely consisting of chlamydospores masses. This ontogeny intimates the origin of chlamydospores,
for which the biogenesis correlates the vanishing of vegetative hyphae throughout the basidiomata maturation. Morphological
comparison included Tomophagus colossus (=G. colossus), G. subamboinense and G. weberianum, the known Ganodermataceae species producing chlamydospores and or gasterospores in basidiomata tissues, and G. resinaceum, the closest species with regard to morphology. It followed that G. carocalcareus could not be assigned to these or any other known Ganoderma species. Analyses of mtSSU and ITS rDNA sequence data resolved G. carocalcareus in the G. resinaceum group as a distinct species, but being a close relative of both G. subamboinense and G. weberianum. 相似文献

Sterigmatosporidium gen. n. is described as a new basidiomycetous yeast-like fungus with the single species Sterigmatosporidium polymorphum sp. n. for which a Latin diagnosis and a preliminary life cycle are presented. The mean character distinguishing the new genus from the imperfect genus Sterigmatomyces is the development of a dikaryotic mycelium with clamp connections producing sexual spores in ramified whorls and lateral chlamydospores as well as blastospores. The dikaryotic phase could be induced by crossing compatible haploid clones of the heterothallic fungus, which are similar to Sterigmatomyces but not identical with any known species. 相似文献

The mutant strainClaviceps purpurea 244 forming hyphae composed mainly from sclerotiumlike cells was found to sporulate both in liquid and solid media, particularly
in the form of terminal chlamydospores (4.0 × 6.5 μm). Chlamydospores produced during submerged cultivation germinated, new
chlamydospores being formed directly from germ tubes, or, occasionally, conidia (the so-called microcycle) or new vegetative
mycelium were formed. The ultrastructures of the chlamydospores and vegetative cells was identical. The cytoplasm was filled
with ribosomes and contained lipid inclusions and vacuoles with membrane invaginations. Strain 244 cultivated under submerged
conditions produced 150 μg/ml clavins, with elymoclavin predominating (82 %). The parent strainClaviceps purpurea 129 only produced chlamydospores on the vegetative mycelium, whereas no microcycle was detected; under submerged conditions
it produced mainly agroclavin (85 %) at a concentration of 4 mg/ml. 相似文献

The hyphomycete Sorosporella sp. was isolated from the mole cricket, Scapteriscus vicinus collected in Alachua Co., Florida. Scanning (SEM) and/or transmission (TEM) electron microscopy were used to study the chlamydospores characteristic of this genus and the conidial production in the alternate state, Syngliocladium. Brick-red chlamydospores, which occur in clusters in insect cadavers, have a fibrous cell wall as revealed by TEM. Pores often occur between walls of adjacent cells. Lipids, including a large central lipid droplet and smaller droplets along the periphery of the cell, are abundant in the cytoplasm. Most organelles were difficult to distinguish due to the density of the cytoplasmic material. Chlamydospores germinate on water or media. On Sabouraud maltose agar, germinating chlamydospores produce a white mycelial mat; synnematous-type growth was sometimes observed. Mycelia may bear conidiophores and ellipsoid conidia.Florida Agricultural Experiment Station Journal Series No. 7789. 相似文献

The positions and general anatomical and histological characteristics of the gonads of Bipes biporus and B. canaliculatus are described. The amounts of DNA per haploid chromosome set have been measured in both species, the values being 1.83 and 2.0 pg for biporus and canaliculatus respectively. The karyotypes of both species are described on the basis of data from mitotic and meiotic metaphase chromosome sets and from lampbrush chromosomes. B. biporus has 10 macrochromosomes and 11 microchromosomes. B. canaliculatus has 11 macrochromosomes and 11 microchromosomes. The karyotypes of the two species differ distinctly with regard to the shapes of 3 of the macrochromosomes. Chiasma distribution is described for male meiosis in B. biporus. Studies of the lampbrush chromosomes of both species show the chiasma distribution in the female to be generally similar to that found in the male biporus. In B. canaliculatus, lampbrush chromosomes with maximally extended lateral loops are found in oocytes that are oblate spheroids measuring 0.7×1.0 mm along their short and long axes respectively, these being well before the start of the major phase of vitellogenesis. Smaller oocytes have more distinct chromomeres and shorter loops. Microchromosomes take the form of typical small lampbrush chromosomes in oocytes. There are at the most 1,000 chromomeres per haploid set of lampbrush chromosomes in B. canaliculatus. Chiasmata are described from lampbrush preparations in which the two half-bivalents are firmly attached to one another without evident association of their axes, indicating the possibility of chiasmate association between the DNA axes of lateral loops. There are remarkably few extrachromosomal nucleoli in Bipes oocytes, and its is suggested that this may indicate a level of ribosomal gene amplification that is much lower than that found in fish and Amphibia. The observations are particularly discussed in relation to current ideas concerning the structure and function of lampbrush chromosomes. 相似文献

The morphology of many hypogeous fungi converges on a homogeneous reduced form, suggesting that disparate lineages are subject to a uniform selection pressure. The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the morphology and infer the phylogeny of the Leucogastrales with Mycolevis siccigleba using a Bayesian methodology. A comprehensive morphological assessment was used for an a priori phylogenetic inference to guide the sequencing effort. All structures except spore ornamentation pointed to the Albatrellaceae as the most likely sister taxon. Polyporoletus sublividus, a close relative of Albatrellus, produces ornamented basidiospores with a similar structure to M. siccigleba basidiospores. The ITS from 30 taxa was used for the molecular phylogenetic analysis. P. sublividus was found sister to Mycolevis. Leucophleps spinispora and L. magnata formed a group sister to the Polyporoletus/Mycolevis group, whereas Leucogaster was polyphyletic with respect to the core of the Leucogastrales and sister to A. caeruleoporus. This relationship was expected as previously undescribed chlamydospores produced by members of Albatrellus had a similar morphology to the basidiospores of L. rubescens. 相似文献

Pistillate Vallisneria americana produces upright vegetative axes and prostrate stolons and develops in a manner fundamentally similar to that of Limnobium spongia (Hydrocharitaceae) and certain other taxa of Alismatidae. The cauline portions of pistillate V. americana branch solely by the bifurcation of apical meristems, and their mode of branching offers clues concerning the nature of the plant body. The upright axes are interpreted to have sympodial growth, whereas at least certain stolons appear to be entirely monopodial. The upright axes are either typical vegetative axes or turions; and of these, only turions appear to survive the winter in at least one locality. Pistillate V. americana produces intravaginal squamules (multi-seriate trichomes) although they appear reduced in number relative to those in certain other hydrocharitaceous and alismatid taxa. Vallisneria americana exhibits a notable degree of mirror image symmetry which differs somewhat from that of Limnobium spongia. 相似文献

Hyphae are usually the only fungal elements found in tissue of mucormycosis, and other fungal elements are quite rarely encountered. We found chlamydospores in bronchial lumina in autopsied tissue of pulmonary mucormycosis of a diabetic patient. Chlamydospores are thick-walled, asexually produced spores arising from the modification of a hyphal segment. This is the first histologic demonstration of chlamydospores in mucormycosis in which the causative fungus is culturally identified to species level. Rhizopus microsporus var. rhizopodiformis was isolated from the present autopsied pulmonary tissue. A literature review of human infection by this fungus found 27 cases with histopathologic evidence. 相似文献

Cystocarpic and spermatangial plants of rarely reported red alga Bonnemaisonia geniculata Gardner, epiphytic on Odonthalia Aoccosa (Esp.) Falk, were collected from june to September 1975 at shell Beach, california. Carpospores inoculated into unialgal culture divided, upon germination, in to two daughter cells, both of which formed erect and rhizoidal axes, Erect axes were uniseriale and alternately branched with a distictive zigzag pattern of axial cells. No tetrasporangia developed in culture. The presumptive tetrasporangia developed in culture to a described genus. Plants morphologically similar to those cultured from carpospores were found at the collection site; they bore tetrasporangia from February to june. Cullured letrasporews gave rise to male and female plants similar to those of field-collected B. geniculate in ca. a I:I ratio. Fertile female plants in the presence of male plants formed cystocarps. Carpospores gave rise to the alternately branched tetrasporophyte phase. Bonnemaisonia geniculate has a heteromorphic life history involving a previously undescribed tetrasporophyte. 相似文献

ABSTRACT A new species of the genus Polysiphonia from the Mediterranean Sea is described. It is an ecorticate species, with 4 pericentral cells, showing prostrate axes from which erect axes arise. Rhizoids are formed by pericentral cells in a median position remaining in open connection with them. Erect axes are straight, simple throughout or pseudodichotomous at the base then simple or with one (rarely two-three) orders of branching; trichoblasts and scar cells not observed. Only tetrasporangial plants were found. They show ellipsoid tetrasporangia borne in short straight series, often interrupted by sterile segments. The new species is also characterized by a peculiar habit consisting of prostrate axes, adhering to lower faces of Peyssonnelia spp. by means of rhizoids growing upward, from which erect upright axes perforating thalli of the supporting species arise. A comparison with the related species of Polysiphonia was also carried out. 相似文献
