Teliospores were mostly circular, 7-12 µm diam. Max. germination of aggregated teliospores occurred at 30°C and different germination patterns were observed. Cultural characters on different media varied. The fungus grew well within 3-5 days on potato or carrot agar at 35°. Growth remained purely sporidial even after repeated subculturing. Sporidia were borne on promycelia, laterally and/or terminally and reproduced by budding. Sporidia were spindle-shaped, 8-25 µm long. Individual separated teliospores seldom germinated. The use of sporidial inoculum in screening for smut resistance in P. americanum is discussed","1983","published",,"Transactions of the British Mycological Society","81","3",,,"597-603",,,,,,,,,,,"TRUE",,,,,,,,"",,"http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?q=Tolyposporium+penicillariae%2C+the+causal+agent+of+pearl+millet+smut&hl=en&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp=on","author",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
