Morphology of three polycentric rumen fungi and description of a procedure for the induction of zoosporogenesis and release of zoospores in cultures by Ho, Y. W., Bauchop, T.

“…Undifferentiated sporangia were produced by all three isolates; differentiation of the sporangia did not occur in the spent growth media. However, if thalli possessing recently-formed sporangia were transferred to, or flooded with, fresh liquid medium or rumen fluid, zoosporogenesis and liberation of zoospores occurred within 17-20 min for isolates LL and LC2 and 30 min for R. elegans. …”
