Each terminal branch has a cup-like expansion bearing on minute spicules from three to five conidia. The conidia germinate upon the leaves and give rise to mycelia within and upon the host-plant. Like Peronospora parasitica and other species of the Peronosporece, the lettuce mildew produces oospores (Fig. 51 B) which hibernate " in the old rotting.
