Description: Early growth of mold from a bird dropping in EasyGel media in a Petri dish. At this point, all there is is the mycelium, and not the conidiophores that most people would recognize as “mold”. This eventually grew into a very impressive, fluffy white mold that filled the whole dish. 5× objective, 15× eyepiece; the numbered ticks are 230 µM apart. The scale of the full-sized version of this image is such that each pixel represents a 0.767 µM square.
