Abstract: | Sclerotia were formed in agar culture by a fungus with clamp connections isolated from rice husks at Tsukuba, Japan. The sclerotia
were brown, globose to ellipsoidal, small, up to 200 μm in diameter, and composed of external rind tissue and internal medulla
tissue. Such tiny sclerotia have not been commonly reported among basidiomycetous fungi in the literature. The fungus was
identified as Coprinopsis cinerea on the basis of morphological characteristics together with molecular analyses. Three reference strains of C. cinerea formed sclerotia similarly under identical cultural conditions. |
