From: Drechslerella stenobrocha genome illustrates the mechanism of constricting rings and the origin of nematode predation in fungi

Figure 1

Characteristics of D. stenobrocha used in the sequenced nematode-trapping fungus, showing the amazing mechanical trapping process. The trapping process includes ring formation and ring constriction. A) The free living hyphae and spore; B) Ring without constriction; C) Ring induced to constrict; D) Nematode is capturing. Scale bar: A, D = 20 μm; B, C = 5 μm.
