BESC 204 Exam 2 Questions and
Answers
oomycota - Answer -not "true fungi", characterized by production of thick-walled
oospores and the production of mobile flagellate asexual spores (zoospores), more
closely related to algae, cell walls contain cellulose, nuclei are diploid, no septa

oospore - Answer -sexual spore of oomycete

zoospore - Answer -mobile, flagellate asexual spore of oomycete, have 2 flagella

oogonium - Answer -"female" part of oomycete sexual reproduction; contains oospores

antheridium - Answer -"male" part of oomycete sexual reproduction

tinsel flagella - Answer -type of flagellum with many hair-like structures attached

whiplash flagella - Answer -type of flagellum with no hair-like structures

necrotrophic - Answer -must kill its host in order to gain nutrients

biotrophic - Answer -can only feed off host if the host is alive

thigmotrophic - Answer -directional growth of plant in response to direct stimulation

Direct germination - Answer -germination by hyphal growth

indirect germination - Answer -germination by zoospore formation

Phytophthora infestans - Answer -oomycete that caused late blight of potato

late blight of potato - Answer -caused by phytophthora infestans; began in 1845,
blight=crops collapsing, potatoes liquefy, 15 years, 31% decline in population, "late"
because it occurred late in the season

Anton DeBary - Answer -father of plant pathology; proved late blight was fungus-like by
inoculating healthy potatoes; called the organism Botrytis infestans

, germ theory - Answer -states that many diseases are caused by the presence and
actions of specific microrganisms within the body

Koch's postulate - Answer -1) disease symptoms on host
2) isolate microbe from host and put it in pure culture
3) infect healthy host with microbe
*symptoms from 1 SHOULD match new symptoms*
4) isolate same microbe again from second host

Plasmopora viticola - Answer -oomycete responsible for grape downy mildew,
introduced from the new world

Bordeaux mixture - Answer -discovered and named by professor Millardet, mixture of

wheat rust life cycle - Answer -stage 0: spermagonia
stage 1: aeciospores - transfer spores (can only infect wheat)
----------------------------------------
stage 2: urediospores - repeating spores
stage 3: teliospores - meiosis in early spring
stage 4: basidiospores - transfer spores (can only infect barberry

stage 0: spermagonia and spermatia - Answer -results form infection by haploid
basidiospore, carried out on barbarry, (n)

stage 1: aecium and aeciospores - Answer -also on barbarry, dikaryotization, spores are
single-celled, these spores are transfer spores - have to move to wheat, (n+n)

stage 2: uredinium and urediniospores - Answer -repeating spores - are able to infect
host on which they are formed, usually one-celled, germinate quickly - short lived, (n+n),
use appressorium - snakelike hyphae

stage 3: telium and teliospores - Answer -(n+n/2n), from uredinium if present, site of
karyogamy - resistant, germinate by forming basidiums and basidiospores

stage 4: basidia and basidiospores - Answer -meiosis, septa formed creating haploids,
germinate directly or indirectly, transfer spores

coffee rust - Answer -Hemileia vastatrix, discovered by Rev. Miles Berkeley, 1869,
