Summary

Zoospores ofPhytophthora infestans were seen to fuse in pairs. Generally within 30 min. after zoospore discharge, fusion started by the formation of a connection between touching zoospores. Gradually the connection became shorter and thicker (fig. 1,2 and 3), and within 30 min. the two zoospores united to form a spherical body (fig. 4). The flagella were thrown off just before the compound zoospore assumed the spherical shape. The compound zoospores germinated by a germ tube within 30 min. after their formation. The analogy withCritopoulos' observations on zoospore fusion inP. capsici is discussed.
