“…basicola by secreting the bridging polymers and subsequently enzymatically creating the perforations. Similar conclusions were reached by Old and Wong (1976). While the évidence is overwhelming that thèse minute perforations are caused by soil microbiota (Old and Patrick 1976), conclusive proof of pathogenicity and data on isolation of the responsible microbiota are still lacking.…”

“…Fungivory by soil amoebae has been documented for more than 50 years. However, the first reports were still a mystery: Old (1967) observed peculiar, round perforations in the walls of fungal spores which had been incubated in natural soils, but the true nature of the "perforating agent" remained unknown for several years (Old and Wong, 1976;Clough and Patrick, 1976). Finally, Old (1977) and shortly afterward Anderson and Patrick (1980) provided evidence that the perforations were caused by giant terrestrial amoebae.…”

“…Recently Old & Wong (1976) reviewed the work carried out on the perforation-lysis phenomenon. Only wild type conidia of C. satiuus are perforated in soil.…”

“…Many attempts have been made to discover the agents causing perforation of conidia, and Clough & Patrick (1976) had a similar lack of success in their work with T. basicola. As a result of direct observation of spores recovered from soil it was suggested that the small holes approximately the same diameter as bacterial cells could be the result of bacteria aligned end-on to the surface, penetrating the cell wall (Old & Wong, 1976). No convincing hypothesis could be put forward for the nature of the agent causing the holes and annular depressions 0.5-6-0 pm diameter.…”
