Gymnosporangium clavariiforme

On a small living branch of Juniperus communis.

This study corresponds to the telial stage of the species.

Teliospores cylindrical to fusiform, with rounded ends, thick-walled, two-celled, with two cells separated by a prominent central septum.

From the ends of these teliospores, protobasidia and basidia will generate to produce the basidiospores.

Basidiospores ovoid to amygdaliform, hyaline, thin-walled, with an inconspicuous eccentric apiculus at one end and faint granular internal content.
