“…This pattern fits the developmental model explaining morphological variation in Glomales , in which species-level differences reside solely in properties of the spore wall in all genera. The same pattern has been documented thus far in the genera Gigaspora (Bentivenga and Morton 1995), Scutellospora (Franke andMorton 1994, Morton 1995), and Glomus (Morton 1996, Sturmer andMorton 1997). Developmental patterns also indicate that inner wall organization and structure are more highly conserved than that in the spore wall, so that these structures group species into higher taxa .…”

Abstract:A new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal species, Acaulospora colossica, ( Glomales, Acaulosporaceae) is described, and its distribution and seasonality discussed. Spores of A. colossica develop from saccules that empty their contents in the developing spores. Spore wall structure consists of 3 layers, all originating from the subtending hyphae. The two inner layers are laminated. The outermost spore wall layer is typically sloughed off before the spores mature. Two inner walls arise sequentially. Both inner walls are comprised of two layers. The outer layer of the innermost wall is beaded. Acaulospora colossica is described from a population in Durham, North Carolina. Its name refers to the relatively large size of the spores. Finally, the morphology of the new species A. colossica is compared and contrasted to two closely related species A. laevis and A. koskei.

“…The preparation of spores, determination of colour, and photographing of spores and mycorrhizal structures were performed as described previously (Błaszkowski 2012;Błaszkowski et al 2012). Types of spore wall layers are those defined by Błaszkowski (2012), Stürmer andMorton (1997), andWalker (1983). Colour names are from Kornerup and Wanscher (1983).…”

“…These specimens probably represent early developmental stages of this fungus. In members of the phylum Glomeromycota, producing similar spores, the ontogenetical development of their spores begins the formation of outer layers or walls, and the inner layers/walls start to develop when the differentiation of the phenotypic and biochemical properties of the preceding layers/walls are fully completed (Stürmer and Morton 1997). Thus, in immature spores, the present subcellular structures may represent both their transitional and terminal developmental stages and, hence, they may be mistakenly interpreted.…”

Endogone lactiflua (Zygomycota, Endogonales) occurs in Poland

Morphological properties of sporocarps and spores of Endogone lactiflua (Zygomycota, Endogonales), a fungus for the first time found in Poland, are described and illustrated. Endogone lactiflua was wet sieved and decanted from a sample taken from the zone extending from the upper soil layer to rhizosphere of Pinus sylvestris growing in a forest dune in northern Poland. The recovered spores mainly occurred in large and compact sporocarps, although both small aggregates with a few spores and single zygosporangia of this fungus were also isolated. Endogone lactiflua is the fourth species of the genus Endogone found to occur in Poland. The distribution of the fungus in the world is also presented.
