In this article we will discuss about the reproduction in erysiphe. This will also help you to draw the structure and diagram of reproduction in erysiphe. Asexual Reproduction in Erysiphe (Fig. 11.4): With the establishment of the ectomycelium on the surface of the host, the fungal parasite starts reproducing asexually during the growing season by producing asexual spores known as [...]
The following points highlight the top eleven features of basidiomycetes. 1. The somatic phase consists of a well-developed, septate, filamentous mycelium which passes chiefly through two stages. (a) Primary mycelium: It is formed by the germination of a basidiospore and contains a single haploid (n) nucleus in each cell. It bears neither sex organs nor any basidia and basidiospores. It [...]
In this article we will discuss about the life cycle of phyllactinia with the help of suitable diagrams. Mycelium of Phyllactinia: The mycelium is partly internal and partly found on the surface of the host. The mycelium spreads on both the surfaces of the host. The hyphae are branched, septate and uninucleate. Although haustoria are not present in epidermal cells, [...]
