Conidial morphology and ecological characteristics as diagnostic tools for identifying Claviceps purpurea from salt-marsh habitats.
2005-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Claviceps purpurea associated with grass hosts in salt-marsh habitats, also known as G3 ergot, can be differentiated from C. purpurea infecting grasses in other habitats, using genetic, chemical, and morphological criteria. However, only morphological analysis can be preformed on herbarium specimens, which should not be destroyed, or older samples that cannot be grown in culture. To determine if conidial character...
