The Pond-Seum Parasites are minute plants living in the cells of Pond-scums, Desmids, Diatoms, etc. In one family {Ancylisteoe) they are tubular, branching filamentSj while in Ghytridiece they consist of rounded or branching cells. Both zoospores and resting-spores are usually pro- duced, the former escaping from the end of a branch which has pushed out through the wall of the host.* The^Gall- fungi (^Synchytriem) of many flowering plants are probably related to the foregoing. They produce swollen, rust- 'jke vesicles in the epidermal cells, in which reddish or brownish zoo- spore-producing spores are formed. 290. The Mildews and White Rusts {PeronosporecB) live parasiti- cally in the interior of higher plants. They are composed of long branch- ing tubes, whose cavities are con- tinuous throughout. They grow between the cells of their hosts,* and draw,nourishment from them by means of little branches {haus- toria), which thrust themselves ., , ,1 ,1 /xn- ni-\ Fia. 65.—Showing one of the through the walls (.big. 65). hyph^ (m, m) of a Mildew, —.^ , / .
