Yellow spores and mycelium (in KOH) of fungi around ... Yellow spores and mycelium (in KOH) of fungi around parasitic Ascomycete fungus Coccoidella scutula in white grainy substance from Protomyces(?) fungus from ... a day before in Little Thicket Nature Sanctuary. Texas, March 26, 2023Yellow spores and mycelium of fungi Coccodiella or Telimena (Phyllachorales) were observed in white grainy substance from the upper surface of leaves of sweetleaf (Symplocos tinctoria) collected a day before in Little Thicket Nature Sanctuary, Texas. The observation was made on March 26, 2023. - generated by AI The image shows an optical microscopy view of spores and mycelium from various fungi around a parasitic fungus Coccoidella scutula embedded in a white grainy substance from Protomyces(? fungus found on leaves of red bay (Persea borbonia) at the Little Thicket Nature Sanctuary. The spores are round, yellowish-brown, and translucent with dark brown granules in their interior. The mycelium is seen around them as irregularly shaped, opaque, yellow-brown filaments that are thin to thick. Some of the smaller fungal elements have a distinctive square or rectangular shape. Other structures appear as small dots scattered throughout the image. The background appears to be a white grainy substance from the Protomyces fungus. The image is taken using an optical microscope with KOH (potassium hydroxide) treatment, which helps to bring out the details of the fungal structures and spores. Overall, this image provides a detailed view of the various fungi associated with Coccoidella scutula on red bay leaves at Little Thicket Nature Sanctuary in Texas. – AI vision |
