DK1622 cells were grown and plated for development in submerged culture in 100-mm-diameter petri plates as described in Materials and Methods. The plates were incubated at 28°C for 1 week before the cultures were scraped from the plate and sonicated to release spores from fruiting bodies. The spores were counted in a hemacytometer.
