A perforation having been made in the oogonial wall, the whole of the protoplasm of the antherid empties itself into the oogone (there being no periplasm), and the united mass rounds itself off and becomes the oosperm. The germination of the oosperm has not been observed. Propagation takes place by means of zoospores (Lagenidium), and to this end either the whole thallus-hypha becomes transformed into a. zoosporange, or it is divided i

It should be borne in mind that the author in presenting this view of classification does not necessarily commit himself to it. It is based on that presented in Engler & Prantl's Ptlanzenfamilien. There are three classes. I. Class Phycomycetes (Alga-like Fungi). 1. SUBCLASS OOMYCETES. 432. These arc the egg-spore fungi. They include the water mold (Saprolegnia), the downv mildew of the grap

In the case of certain species, the- antherids never produce these pro- cesses, or the oogones may be without antherids. In other cases antherids are never produced fit all, or only by way of rare exception. In the meantime the oospheres ripen into oosperms, while the antherids, if present, perish.

Since that time the Potato crop has never been entirely free from it. The disease makes its appearance upon the leaves and stems as spots at first small and pale-coloured, but as they enlarge the centre of each becomes brown, and extends, though still with a pale margin, till the spots run together, and the whole leaf or even the whole shoot may be affected (Fig. 352). If leaves with young infected patches be examined on a damp still day, or better,

In both cases the male gamete is conveyed to the female by a method suitable for land-living plants. Comparison shows that both are modifications of organs originally developed to secure fertilisation through the medium of external water. The question will naturally arise whether any fungal type still shows a motile male gamete. This is found in Moiwblepharis, a fungus that lives saprophytically in water (Fig. 35S). Here a terminal

Coming then to rest, the cilia are dropped : each zoospore rounds itself off, and, investing itself with a wall, puts out a hyphal tube. If this takes place on the surface of a potato leaf, as it well might do under conditions of rain or heavy dew, all is ready for the infection. This may either be by entry through the pore of a stoma or by direct perforation through the epidermal wall (Fig. 356). By either route the parasite may reach the in
