Fig. 1From: Fungal photobiology: a synopsisSporophores (sporangiophores) of Phycomyces blakesleeanus. Sporangiophores can grow several cm guided by environmental signals towards the open air for spore dispersal. The Phycomyces sporangiophores are guided by light, gravity, wind, touch, and the presence of nearby objects. At the tip of each sporangiophore there is a small ball, the sporangium, filled with vegetative spores. Photograph: Dolores Pérez de Camino, Luis M.
