| Small round conidia were attached to short simple conidiophores, resembling lollipops. |
| Spores or conidia are carried from the soil surface or debris to the plant by wind or splashing rain. |
| The phialides produce chains of uninucleate conidia after repeated mitotic division and cytokinesis. |
| Fungi of this genus produce characteristic darkly pigmented, septate hyphae or conidia. |
| In many plant pathogenic fungi, conidia are the infectious propagules responsible for initiating infection as well as disease dissemination. |
| Conidiophores terminally differentiate at the tips to yield multinucleated asexual spores, termed conidia. |
