INFECTION OF COCKROACHES WITH HERPOMYCES (LABOULBENIALES). IV. DEVELOPMENT OF H. STYLOPYGAE SPEGAZZINI

A. GLENN RICHARDS 1 and MYRTLE N. SMITH 1

The development of male and female plants of the dioecious fungus Herpomyces stylopygae on cockroach antennae is described. Cell lineage is fundamentally different for male and female plants. The gross structure and apparent cell lineage are different for female plants growing on setae in contrast to ones on the body wall. An interpretation in terms of developmental plasticity and geometric limitations of the host's surface is suggested for the two types of growth of female plants.
