Colony similar to that on CMD, with wavy margin, mycelium denser

Colony similar to that on CMD, with wavy margin, mycelium denser and faster on the agar surface, after a week degenerating, many hyphae appearing empty. Aerial hyphae inconspicuous, more frequent and long along the colony margin. Autolytic

activity and coilings absent Talazoparib molecular weight or inconspicuous, more frequent at higher temperatures. No diffusing pigment, no distinct odour produced. Chlamydospores seen after 3–6 days at 25°C, frequent, terminal and intercalary, (5–)6–10(–13) × (3.5–)5–8(–12) μm, l/w (0.9–)1.0–1.4(–1.9) (n = 40), globose, ellipsoidal or fusoid. Conidiation noted after 3–4 days at 25°C, earlier at higher temperatures, in many amorphous, loose white cottony tufts mostly median from the plug outwards, confluent to masses up to 17 mm long; white, turning green, 27CD3–4, 27E5–6, 28CE5–8, from inside after 4–5 days; conidiation becoming dense within the tufts, loose at their white margins first with long, straight or slightly sinuous, sterile ends in the periphery, projecting 50–150(–300) μm from the tuft margins when young, sterile and beset with minute droplets along their length, mostly becoming fertile and incorporated into the tufts. Tufts consisting of a loose reticulum

with mostly unpaired branches often in right angles, giving rise to several main axes. Main axes up to 0.6 mm long, regularly https://www.selleckchem.com/products/abt-199.html tree-like, with few or many paired or unpaired side branches often in right angles, mostly (30–)40–110(–150) Histidine ammonia-lyase μm long, progressively longer from the top down, regularly tree-like at lower levels. Branches (1.5–)2.0–4.0(–5) mm wide, flexuous; apparent paired branches or phialides often not strictly opposite but slightly shifted on the axis. Branching points often thickened to 4.5–7(–9) μm, particularly in older tufts. Phialides generally solitary along main axes

and side branches, also often on cells that resemble phialides, sometimes paired, in terminal position of the main axes sometimes in whorls of 2–3, often cruciform, or up to four in pseudo-whorls, i.e. including unicellular branches, each of which produces a phialide. Phialides (3.7–)4.7–7.8(–10.5) × (2.3–)2.5–3.0(–3.4) μm, l/w (1.3–)1.6–3.0(–4.4), (0.9–)1.2–2.0(–2.2) μm wide at the base (n = 70), lageniform or ampulliform, symmetric, straight or slightly curved, often distinctly widened in the middle, base often constricted, neck short, less commonly long. Conidia produced in minute heads <20 μm diam, (2.7–)3.0–3.7(–5.2) × (1.8–)2.0–2.5(–2.7) μm, l/w (1.1–)1.3–1.7(–2.1) (n = 90), at first hyaline, turning yellow-green, oblong or ellipsoidal, rarely cylindrical with constricted sides, smooth, eguttulate or with minute guttules, scar indistinct, size uniform. At 15°C colony irregular in shape, loose; conidiation in green 26–27DE4–5, confluent tufts similar to those at 25°C; chlamydospores numerous in narrow hyphae.
