It is also noteworthy that this species is heterothallic (Betts, 1926). Single spore cultures fail to produce apothecia. This sexual differentia- tion takes place in the ascus, since cultures from the spores of a single ascus gave equal numbers of -f- and — mycelia. This cross fertilization, since of the numerous forms studied only A. carbonarius shows the transitional type, appears to have been rapidly lost or is only realized in a few cases as conidial copulation. In the large majority of the previously investigated forms, it is replaced by true deuterogamous Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Gäumann, Ernst Albert, 1893-1963; Dodge, Carroll William, 1895-.
