Aciculosporium monostipum

Aciculosporium monostipum is a species of fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae.[1] It infects individual florets in the same way as species of the genus Claviceps but does not produce sclerotia. When grown in pure culture it shows dimorphism in production of a yeast-like ephelidial phase as well as a mycelial phase.
