Abstract

Results of comparative cultural, conidiophore and conidia morphology, growth-temperature, and pathogenicity studies proved that Geniculodendron pyriforme Salt is the imperfect state of Caloscypha fulgens (Pers.) Boudier. The results are discussed in relation to the etiology and ecology of the disease of conifer seeds caused by the fungus.
