The Influence of Sterols on Meiosis in Phytophthora cactorum

Abstract

SUMMARY: Abortion of oogonia of Phytophthora cactorum grown on media containing cholestanol occurs at or just before early meiotic prophase. Meiosis is possibly controlled by a steroid hormone, for which cholesterol is an effective precursor but cholestanol is not.
