  • Spore production mechanism of selected lignicolous basidiomycetes was inhibited by soaking their sporocarps in water for varying periods. Depending on the duration of immersion, some species resumed spore discharge, while in others it was completely ruined. This was related to the nature and consistency of these sporocarps. All the species studied absorbed water quite readily into their sporocarps. The loss of this water through dehydration was more rapid in smaller and delicate species than the bulky and robust ones.
