Safranin O as a rapid nuclear stain for fungi.
TLDR
Maximum germination of both basidiospores and oidia was obtained on agar media containing cornmeal and malt extract with malt-extract-liquid medium, apparently providing a stimulatory substance in sufficient quantity to yield maximum percent germination.Abstract:

Characterization of AG-13, a Newly Reported Anastomosis Group of Rhizoctonia solani
TL;DR: Length and sequence of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of rDNA from isolates of AG-13 were unique among AGs of R. solani.

Characterization of Mycorrhizal Isolates of Rhizoctonia solani from an Orchid, Including AG-12, a New Anastomosis Group.
TL;DR: In tests run to characterize pathogenic potential, selected mycorrhizal isolates of AG-12 and AG-6 did little damage to potato and barley seedlings, moderate damage to head lettuce Seedlings, and more extensive damage to seedlings of cauliflower and radish.

Pectic zymograms and taxonomy and pathogenicity of the Ceratobasidiaceae
TL;DR: The pectic enzymes of 140 isolates of Rhizoctonia-1ike fungi from the Western Australian grainbelt were examined by electrophoresis and found to fall into 11 distinct zymogram groups (ZG).

Mycorrhizal fungi of Vanilla: diversity, specificity and effects on seed germination and plant growth.
Andrea Porras-Alfaro,Paul Bayman +1 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that a single orchid species can be associated with several mycorrhizal fungi with different functional consequences for the plant, and significant differences among fungi in effects on seed germination and plant growth are found.

Characterization of Rhizoctonia solani from potato in Great Britain
TL;DR: This is the first investigation which provides evidence of the relative AG composition of R. solani populations causing disease in potato crops in Great Britain.
