pyrenomycete parasitized or not?
François Bartholomeeusen, 06-05-2019 15:14
Hi forum members,

On carex (probably C. acutiformis) I found, just below the epidermis, black ellipsoid fruiting bodies with a tapering ostiole. Here and there are brown ancoring hyphen.
During an initial examination I found filiform spores that were unripe, in my view. After adding Melzer reagent I counted seven septa.
In the second examination, three days later, there were winding threads visible at both ends of the asci. These threads grew from each individual spore. In Congo red the "healthy" asci react strongly as well as the apical apparatus. I wonder if, what I thought to be paraphyses, are perhaps parasitic conidiophores?
Third examination: several asci bend like a banana and the contents disintegrated before my eyes.
Two questions: 1) which pyrenomycete have I examined?
2) Can anyone explain the phenomenon, is it maturation or a parasite?
Thank you for any additional information.

Re : pyrenomycete parasitized or not?
You may consider the genera Ophioceras and Plagiostoma although the latter has non-septate spores and is more or less confined to Urtica. The following key dealing with pyrenomycetes (s.l.) with filiform spores may be of help (i.e. key A9): https://www.mycologen.nl/NMV_Ascomyceten.html Eduard

It was my first thought when I saw ypor pictures

Re : pyrenomycete parasitized or not?
Yes Jac, of course. Plgiosphaera-like on grasses =  Gaeumannomyces.

Re : pyrenomycete parasitized or not?
Dear Jac and Alain,

Thank you very much for providing the solution. Probably it is Gaeumannomyces caricis, unfortunately I don't find a key or "Mycotaxon 11 (1): 23 (1980). I suspect that the website of Cyberliber is down!

Many greetings,

François
