Mycelium of Peziza: It is well developed, frequently perennial and consists of a dense network of hyphae. The hyphae are branched and septate. The cells are uninucleate. The hyphae are hidden from view as they ramify within the substratum. They from a [...]
In this article we will discuss about the life cycle of pyronema with the help of suitable diagrams. Mycelium of Pyronema: It is well developed, filamentous and superficial. The hyphae are hyaline and profusely branched. They ramify over the surface of the substratum to form a cottony layer. The glistening white mycelium forms frost-like masses on the substratum.
