Rhopalomyces elegans

Ciri dan struktur

When grown in pure culture conditions on a petri dish at a temperature of 25 C, Rhopalomyces elegans produces hyaline (translucent), partially submerged colonies that fill the plate in about six days. The fungus produces large, dark brown conidiospores borne on a swollen vesicle at the end of a conidiophore. The vesicles measure 40–63 μm in diameter. The hyphae are very thin, measuring only 2 μm in diameter. Rhopalomyces magnus is similar in morphology, but only attacks eggs of rotifers.

Habitat dan peran ekologis

A common species, R. elegans is found in rotting plant material and animal debris, as well as dung associated with soil. The fungus is a parasite of nematode eggs. When it encounters an egg, it produces hyphae that form a structure on the egg surface similar to an appressorium. This structure produces a narrow infection tube that penetrates the egg shell. Once inside, fungal hyphae proliferate by branching and expanding, eventually filling the interior of the egg and absorbing the nutrients within. R. elegans may be able to attack the larval and adult stages of some nematode species. Rhopalomyces elegans can itself be parasitized by the fungi Mycogone perniciosa and Verticillium psalliotae. Verticillium psalliotae is a saprobic soil-dwelling fungus that is a parasite of the common commercially grown button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). R. elegans may serve as a reservoir for the pathogen, and may harbor the parasite in its thick cell walls.
