Heat-induced Macroconidia Germination in Microsporum gypseum

T J Leighton 1, J J Stock 1
PMCID: PMC377715  PMID: 5780403

Abstract

A method for obtaining purified ungerminated macroconidia is described, and a technique for obtaining 85 to 90% germination of macroconidia under normal nutritional conditions is presented.
