Description:

Description: Rhizopus zygospore. Conjugation of Rhizopus: A, B, C, D, succeessive stages in the production of the zygospore. 447. Under certain conditions short lateral branches spring out near one another from neighboring haphae and grow until their tips are in contact. The end parts of the branches become cut off by septa. They are the gametes, which fuse after the walls have been absorbed at the point of contact. The result is the formation of a thick-walled resting spore, or zygospore (Fig. 307. z). Date: 1901.
