Supplementary Fig. S1. Field emission scanning electron microscopy of GE134766T grown on HSA5 agar for 3 weeks at 28 ºC. Conic tufts of sporogenous aerial hyphae originated by the branching of single and short sporophorous hyphae can be seen.
Supplementary Fig. S2. Field emission scanning electron microscopy of GE134769T grown on HSA5 agar for 3 weeks at 28 ºC. Tufts of sporogenous aerial hyphae undergoing division into squat to cylindrical arthrospores are shown. Branching of sporophorous hyphae giving origin to tufts appears very closed to the agar surface. Arrow indicates the rugosity of the surface of a not fragmented hypha.
