Hi, I have made this video about fusarium pseudograminearum and wanted to make sure that it shows mating of heterothallic ascospores of fusarium pseudograminearum. Any comments?
I am not sure what was going on in our video. I would have expected the cultures of ascospores placed two per plate and where the mycelium meet, compatible mating types mate and form ascocarps and ascospores are then formed in asci. I did not see that process in your video. Or perhaps, I do not have the right program to see it.
Janice, thanks again for your very helpful comment. I did not culture the fungi professionally I just let them grow and had a look. I will do what you suggest and see if I can find the ascospores.
