The strains IE-750 (M. esculenta) and IE-816 (M. conica) were used and cultivated in a
culture media supplemented with compost. Seven stages were identified during sclerotia
formation process: 1. Hyphal growth, 2. Primary mycelia growth and branching, 3. Secondary
mycelia interweaving, 4. Formation of compact masses, 5. Growth of compact masses, 6.
Sclerotia formation, and 7. Sclerotia growth and maturation. Chlamydospores and conidia were
also observed during sclerotia formation process, suggesting Morchella displays diverse
reproduction and survival strategies under different environmental conditions.
