- Observation Only four pairs of Plectosphaerella cucumerina isolates from melon developed complementary heterokaryons.
- Observation Each of the four vegetative compatibility groups of P. cucumerina consists of two isolates of close geographical origin, all from diseased melon plants.
- Observation The remaining P. cucumerina isolates were vegetatively incompatible among themselves, and two did not produce nit mutants.
