“…We believe it is significant that none of the species used in the growth tests was completely inhibited by salinity, provided the temperature was maintained at 25° C. At 35° C, as the figures show, total growth was variable, yet the rate of growth in most of the species was neither increased or decreased over that evident in the controls. Our experiments were such that the "Phoma growth pattern" (Ritchie, 1957) could not be detected.…”

“…The Phoma pattern was first described by Ritchie (1957) for the growth of a marine species of Phoma in relation to its tolerance to varying temperature and salinity levels. He observed that within the limits of temperature tolerance, the salt tolerance (or requirement) steadily increases with rise in temperature until the temperature itself becomes a limiting factor.…”

“…In the present investigation, using the same technique as Shearer (1972), three of the five main primary colonizers showed a reverse Phoma pattern (Table 5) as indicated by the negative slope figures approaching the ideal value. Hughes (as quoted in Gaertner et al 1974) remarked that the work of Ritchie (1957) should not be regarded as 'some sort of dictum about relationships that we should expect for all marine fungi' though he conceded that it 'did stimulate a lot of research'. Much more detailed experimental work concerning the temperature-salinity relationships of marine fungi (especially those with a wide temperature and salinity tolerance) in both their vegetative and reproductive phases is necessary to broaden our understanding of the ecology of these marine fungi.…”

“…As is the case for most marine fungi, the salinity optimum shifted to higher salt concentrations at higher temperatures of culture. This "Phoma-pattern of growth" (Richie 1957) was very pronounced in cultures incubated at 34°C. Such a response was observed regardless of the source of the strains.…”

“…D. salina and many other marine fungi generally do not require seawater, and their growth was found to be somewhat better at lower salinities (Jones and Jennings 1964). Lorenz and Molitoris (1992) reported that isolates of D. salina exhibited the "Phoma-pattern of growth," meaning that at higher temperatures, the salinity optimum increases (Richie 1957). Both growth and spore germination were found to be optimal at 20-30°C, pH values between 5 and 7, both with and without light (Curran 1980;Duffy et al 1991;Panebianco 1994).…”
