Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Numerous phenotypically different isolates of F. moniliforme were recovered from corn
- Observation Some isolates formed heterokaryons more frequently in a given corn growth stage
- Observation Component homokaryons differed in colony color, texture and growth rate
- Observation Component homokaryons differed in sporulation
- Observation Ratios of two homokaryons were balanced in the four major heterokaryons
- Observation Different heterokaryons predominated at different growth stages of corn, indicating preferential adaptation
