The most common and, at the same time, most apparent effect of parasitic fungi in this direction, is the stimulation to cell-division and cell-multiplication. This occurs chiefly in young tissues, or in those still in process of growth, and gives rise to numerous peculiar outgrowths and swellings, some of which have already been referred to. The parenchyma of mature tissues may also exhibit secondary cell-division, when under the influence of a parasitic fungus. This I found to be the case in leaf- petioles of Umbellifera; attacked by Protomyccs macrosporus (Fig. 9). The epidermis and vascular bundles are never disturbed, but the intervening tissues are permeated by an intercellular mycelium, which causes the cells to divide into a large number of delicate-walled chambers, ° . . .
