Description
Phytophthora pluvialis is homothallic; it forms oogonia in culture. Its oogonia are terminal, smooth and globose, being approximately 30 µm in diameter, and possess amphigynous antheridia. Its oospores are globose and aplerotic, being about 28 µm in diameter. Sporangia formed in water are ovoid and slightly irregular, semi-papillate, terminal or subterminal, and partially caducous with medium-sized pedicels.[1]
gollark: Most personality tests ask questions which are basically just asking you which personality traits you have, which is silly.
gollark: The second version was intended as more of a personality test with no specific "right" answers, which is why it said "personality test" at the top.
gollark: I was intending to "finish" this, and then somehow convince a large group of people to fill it in, and then do statistics on it, but forgot.
gollark: Very communism of you.
gollark: This one is just Newcomb's paradox, but really, all things ever should contain it.
