Abstract
ALTHOUGH growth correlations have been widely studied in the higher plants, there have been few observations of this phenomenon in the lower plants, and none at all in the fungi, The occurrence of such a correlation in the apothecial stipe of the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) D.By., 1886, is described here.
