| development and dehiscence of the cephalothecoid peridium in aporothielavia leptoderma shows it belongs in chaetomidium. | the development of the cephalothecoid peridium of aporothielavia leptoderma was examined using light and electron microscopy. early stages in ascoma initiation were consistent with previous reports for other species in the chaetomiaceae. however, as young cleistothecia increased in size, clusters of peridial cells in the outer textura angularis elongated in a radial pattern around a central cell or cell cluster to form rosettes of relatively thick-walled segments that marked the central areas of ... | 2007 | 17158040 |
