In contrast, homobasidiomycetes, in addition to having aseptate basidia, generally have small regularly shaped sterigmata and spores that do not self-replicate.
22.
The basidia, are up to 35 43 �m long by 4 12 �m, and each have four sterigmata, extensions that hold the spores.
23.
In the Basidiomycetes, usually four spores develop on the tips of thin projections called sterigmata, which extend from club-shaped cells called a basidia.
24.
The basidia ( spore-bearing cells ) are 17 23 by 7.5 10 ?m, and four-spored with sterigmata around 3 ?m long.
25.
The hybrid " glauca " ?" engelmannii " exhibited the branch pubescence of the male parent, especially on or near the sterigmata.
26.
Spores are spherical or nearly so, measuring 24 by 21 hilar appendix ( a depression in the surface where the spore was once connected to the sterigmata ).
27.
These affinities were the possession of large sterigmata ( " Cerato-basidium " means " horned basidium " ) and the production of basidiospores that produce secondary spores.
28.
The basidia ( spore-bearing cells ) are four-spored and club-shaped, measuring 14 25 by 4 7 ?m; the sterigmata are 4 5 ?m.
29.
The basidia are somewhat club-shaped, three-or four-spored with sterigmata 2 4 um long, and overall dimensions of 37 51 by 12 15 ?m.
30.
The basidia ( spore-bearing cells ) are club-shaped, four-spored with sterigmata up to 3 �m long, and measure 14 20 by 7 10 �m.
