“…Perithecia were opened for detailed observations on developing asci and for photographing rosettes of asci. Four to 6-day-old perithecia containing asci at all stages of meiosis and ascospore delimitation were stained using iron-hematoxylin or acriflavin (Raju and Newmeyer 1977;Raju 1986). Rosettes of maturing asci from 7-to 10-day-old perithecia were lightly stained using 10-to 20-fold dilutions of ferric acetate and hematoxylin solutions.…”

“…The fixation was in a freshly prepared solution containing 9:6:2 (vh) absolute ethanol, propionic acid, and 10% aqueous chromic acid. The fixed perithecia were hydrolyzed and stained using the iron-hematoxylin procedure described for Neurospora [Raju and Newmeyer, 1977;Raju, 19781.…”

“…Homozygous killer × killer and sensitive × sensitive crosses are normal and yield 8B:0W asci (spore sacs). When sensitive nuclei are enclosed in the same spore with the killer ones, as seen in a giant-spored N. crassa mutant and in the four-spored (heterokaryotic) Neurospora tetrasperma, they can escape the elimination process (7,8). These observations suggest that the killer produces a resistance factor that shelters all nuclei residing in the same spore.…”
