| 11. | The most important and general is production of conidia, but chlamydospores are also frequently produced.
|
| 12. | In contrast, the chlamydospores have only one resistant wall and are multinucleate at all stages.
|
| 13. | Chlamydospores are larger than oospores in size, and are only formed under certain environmental triggers.
|
| 14. | These " Squamanita " form thick-walled chlamydospores on their hosts'fruitbodies.
|
| 15. | Cejp & Milko described this species as having stalked chlamydospore-like structures and no Georgia.
|
| 16. | During rainy periods, chlamydospores in soil may germinate in water to produce sporangia and release zoospores.
|
| 17. | When environmental conditions are suitable, the chlamydospores germinate, producing mycelia ( or hyphae ) and sporangia.
|
| 18. | In water, chlamydospores germinate by producing short germ tubes, each with a sporangium at the tip.
|
| 19. | The hyphae of the ectomycorrhizae can become chlamydospores, an adaptation that helps the fungus tolerate unfavorable conditions.
|
| 20. | However, " Scedosporium " presents more irregular branching, sometimes with terminal or intercalary chlamydospores.
