ascus

On the other hand, ascus fungi have brought some important benefits to humanity.

As a result, the ascus will contain four pairs of spores.

Spores are spherical or nearly so, and number eight per ascus.

Germination of spores has been observed in the ascus as well.

The ascus is rather small, elliptical or suborbicular in shape.

The spores, which number two (more rarely three) per ascus are characteristic for this species.

They are club-shaped, and each ascus typically bears eight spores.

A bitunicate ascus is enclosed in a double wall.

Generally 8 spores are produced in each ascus.

Members of this group form an ascus, a sac-like reproductive structure that bears spores inside.

This is almost always followed by a further mitotic division, so that the ascus ultimately has eight daughter nuclei.

The cap of the ascus in certain ascomycetous fungi.

Spores are arranged in two parallel rows in the ascus.

Like most ascomycetes, Gelasinospora species typically have 8 spores in each ascus.

The eight ascospores are produced inside an ascus.

The ascus initial itself forms as a radiating spur branch at the top of the hook.

There are four basic types of ascus.

Typically, a single ascus will contain eight ascospores.

Like other species in Sphaerotheca, S. castagnei contains only a single ascus.

Sometimes an ascus slips out of the perithecium, bursting open to discharge the spores.

Each ascus contains one to four ascospores.

With no special mechanism, ascospores are all forcibly discharged from the ascus to sit on the leaf surface.

Six to eight spores can be found per ascus (a sac where spores develop).

Tetrads can then be prepared with Zymolyase, or another enzyme, to digest the wall of the ascus.

The combined cell develops into an ascus, a thick-walled, protective structure containing one to eight spores.
