Abstract: | Germination of resting spores is described in 2 Synchytrium species viz. Synchytrium lagenariae Mhatre and Mundkur and S. trichosanthidis Mhatre and Mundkur, parasitic on cucurbitaceous hosts. The resting spores of both species behave as prosorus in germination giving rise to an attached superficial sorus of sporangia. Several anomalies observed in germination are briefly described. Efficacy of methods inducing germination is discussed relative to the field conditions. |
