Spores of Funneliformis mosseae

Shape: The shape varies from globose to sub-globose in shape.

Color: The color of spores ranged from white.pale cream to ellow brown and sometimes light brown.Spores shows golden yellow color in PVLG and golden yellow to golden red in Melzer's:PVLG.

Diameter range: 288.18μm-389.41 μm

Spore after reaction with Melzer's Reagent

Outer layer (L1)- It is a hyaline, mucilaginous, often seen as a crushed fragile layer in both PVLG and melzer's reagent (melzer's: PVLG- 1:1). Thickness of the outer layer varies from 4.22-4.83μm in mature spores.

Middle layer (L2)- It is a thick, continuous layer, which appears brownish in PVLG and reddish-brown in melzer's reagent. In mature spores the thickness varies from 3.36 μm to 5.63μm.

Inner layer (L3)- It appears as a continuous pale yellow coloured layer in both PVLG and melzer's reagent. This thin inner layer remains attached to the second layer. The thickness of the inner layer varies from 1.44-2.13μm.
