Abstract
The uninucleate ascospores of Claviceps fusiformis germinate to give primary and secondary 'conidia'. The nucleus of most ascospores migrated into primary 'conidia' and then into secondary 'conidia' without undergoing any division. In some the ascospore nucleus divided into two and this resulted in two primary conidia. The asexual conidia of honeydew-origin germinated to give secondary, tertiary and quaternary conidia. The nucleus from the primary conidium migrated into the successive conidia without division. Inoculation studies have shown that only the last formed conidia are infective whether they are of ascospore or conidial origin.
