Isozyme analysis of twelve species of the genus Ascobolus

The aim of this work was the delimitation of twelve species of the genus Ascobolus (Ascomycota, Pezizales) based on analysis of electrophoretic patterns of intracellular enzymes. Forty-seven monosporic strains and twenty-two mixed cultures of compatible strains of the genus were used and numerical t...
