In this article we will discuss about the hyphal structure of allomyces. This will also help you to draw the structure and diagram of allomyces. The hyphal wall consists chiefly of Chitin, B glucan and ash. Within it, is the plasma membrane which closely investes the hyphal cytoplasm. Embedded in the cytoplasm are the numerous nuclei. Besides the nuclei there [...]
The following points highlight the four types of spore formation in lower fungi. The types are: 1. Sporangiospores 2. Conidia 3. Chlamydospores 4. Oidia. Type # 1. Sporangiospores: These are asexual spores produced endogenously in special sac-like asexual reproductive organs called the sporangia. The sporangia vary widely in form in the lower fungi. These may be flask-shaped (A), cylindrical, irregularly [...]
In this article we will discuss:- 1. Introduction to Synchytrium Endobioticum 2. Symptoms of Synchytrium Endobioticum 3. Thallus Structure 4. Life Cycle. Introduction to Synchytrium Endobioticum: Synchytrium endobioticum causes the black wart or wart disease of potato (Solanum tuberosum). According to Karling (1964), it has a broad spectrum of Solanaceous sp. in its host range. The potato wart disease is [...]
