| It is in practice an obligate parasite, surviving in citrus or in a variety of other host plants, with no saprophytic phase. |
| The three ecological groups of mushrooms are mycorrhizal, parasitic and saprophytic mushrooms. |
| Most are saprophytic similar to true fungi. v. Sexual life cycle is diplontic, fungi have haplontic cycle. |
| Perform an appropriate dilution plating technique aiming to ensure that any background saprophytic colonyforming populations are diluted out. |
| Inhibition of the fungus can be obtained by spraying with saprophytic fungi. |
| It is a saprophytic plant, i.e. it lives in symbiosis with a fungus that breaks down dead plant material. |
