(A) Laboratory-grown Botrytis cinerea on a potato dextrose agar plate and viewed under a Leica M205 FA Stereomicroscope. (B) Strawberry fruit infected with Botrytis cinerea in field (photo taken by Marlo Molinaro La Trobe University). (C) Sclerotinia sclerotiorum grown in the laboratory on a potato dextrose agar plate and viewed under a Leica M205 FA Stereomicroscope. (D) Bok choy leaf infected with Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, 8 days after inoculation. (E) Laboratory grown putative Fusarium oxysporum collected from CEA, grown on a potato dextrose agar plate and viewed under a Leica M205 FA Stereomicroscope.

(G) Laboratory grown Pythium irregulare now Globisporangium irregulare on a potato dextrose agar plate viewed under a Leica M205 FA Stereomicroscope, obtained from Dr. Niloofar Vaghefi from University of Melbourne. (H) Pythium irregularre now known as Globisporangium irregulare growing on geraniums taken and unchanged from CABI Plantwise Plus website (https://plantwiseplusknowledgebank.org/doi/10.1079/PWKB.Species.46152, accessed on 16 October 2024) under a Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0) license taken by Michael Evans, University of Arkansas.

Golovinomyces is an obligate fungus and therefore unable to be cultured in the laboratory on a growing media.
