Abstract
A small proportion of sporangia of P. palmivora, less
than 1.0 per cent, formed by hyphae growingon coooa pods
germinated in humid air at 25°C whilst still attached to the
hypha. to produce germ tubes terminated by seoondary sporangia.
Sporangia in suspension in distilled water formed the greatest
number of secondary sporangia at 30oe. Germination in samples
of sporangia of the Sameage and formed under the same conditions
varied, and, the percentage of directly germinated sporangia
bearing seccndary sporangia at 30 0c ranged from 1.5 to 17.1 in the
various samples.
