“After 10 mitotic divisions, the tip of the hypha bends to form a crozier into which migrates one nucleus of each mating type.”

“Hyphal fusion is presumably a way to increase cytoplasmic flow and interconnectedness of hypha.”

“When the hypha of a uredine attacks a cell it is unable to perforate it with its whole diameter.”

“In the silky upper layer the epiphytic organisms are most often attached to the generative and skeletal hyphae that make up this layer.”

“In addition, many fungi are able to parasitize spores, sclerotia, or hyphae of other fungi, resulting in biocontrol.”

“Within these putrescent pools, black pycniospores fuse to form hyphae growing toward the opposite leaf surface.”
