occurrence on the seed.<br />
Fig. 27. Plate cultures of Pyricularia oryzae showing<br />
colony growths on PDA, PJA, and VJA, incubated at ART,<br />
21 °C, and 28 °C at 15 d after inoculation.<br />
near the margins. The colony on the reverse side of<br />
the agar plate appears azonated and dark purplish<br />
gray. At 21 °C under alternating 12-h NUV light and<br />
12-h darkness, colonies grow very slowly and attain a<br />
2.50-cm diam in 5 d. They are zonated, velvety with<br />
0.5-cm submerged advancing mycelia, and gray,<br />
becoming dark gray outward. The colony on the reverse<br />
side of the agar plate is zonated and dark purplish<br />
gray, becoming lighter outward. At 28 °C under<br />
alternating 12-h fluorescent light and 12-h darkness,<br />
colonies grow very slowly and attain a 3.17-<br />
cm diam in 5 d. They appear slightly zonated and<br />
