| Cursory scanning of fresh cultures was conducted for each plate to check for existing myxomycete fruiting bodies. |
|
| This was the most common and abundant corticolous myxomycete in the park. |
|
| Fortunately, mycologists quickly dismissed any Extraterrestrial Biological Entity hypothesis and identified the blobs as part of a slime mold or myxomycete. |
|
| The compilation of several published and unpublished studies of myxomycete records from Athens County resulted in a total of 52 species. |
|
| Hydrogen ion concentration values were measured for the five tree species, and later compared to the recorded myxomycete species assemblages. |
|
| County level distribution maps for myxomycete species were produced and GIS technology was used to investigate spatial patterns of distribution for these organisms. |
|
| Because Tennessee is characterized by moderate temperatures, adequate moisture, and a variety of habitats, it should be expected to support a rich myxomycete biota. |
