Germination of P. rubens conidia applied in a suspension to gypsum with additional nutrients and incubated at 97% RH and 21°C. (A) After inoculation, conidia appear hydrated on the surface (t = 1 h). (B) Elongated germination tubes; no ECM is formed (t = 22 h). (C) Fully developed conidiophores (t = 69 h). Scale bars, 10 μm (A, C) and 5 μm (B). The pictures shown represent specific growth phases and were not necessarily taken at the onset of the growth phase. For the onset, see Fig. 1.
