Abstract:Light microscopic observations of nuclear behavior (karyology) during conidiogenesis in the long, narrow phialides of Gliomastix murorum (Corda) Hughes are presented and discussed. Nuclei were observed mostly in a submedian position in phialides. The onset of mitosis was signalled by an increase in the size of nuclei and by the appearance of numerous chromatinic granules (chromosomes?). The number of chromatinic granules appeared to decrease, while the chromatin was arranged in the characteristic “double track… Show more
