Lobed growth of Mortierella capitata on MEA. (a). Micromorphology of M. verticillata (b), arrows indicate the sporangiophores after dehiscence. Chlamydospore of M. gemmifera (c). Sporangiophores with sporangiospores (d) and stylospores (e) of M. polycephala. Stylospores of M. polygonia produced on MEA (f) and its chlamydospores produced on OA (g). Sporangiophores and sporangia of M. amoeboidea (h). Sporangiophores of M. biramosa (i), the arrow indicates the characteristic collar remaining at the apex after the dehiscence of the sporangium. Stylospores of M. indohii (j). Sporangia of Dissophora decumbens (k). Chlamydospores (l) and sporangium (m) produced by D. ornata. Sporangiophores and sporangia after the dehiscence of M. turficola (n). Branching sporangiophores and sporangiospores of Gamsiella multidivaricata (o). Sporangia and sporangiophores produced by M. mutabilis on MEA (p) and its branching sporangiophores produced on OA (q). Sporangia of M. exigua (r). In each panel, the lengths of scale bars denote 10 µm.
