Caption:

This photograph revealed morphology exhibited by a cultivated culture of the fungal organism, Rhizopus oryzae, also known as Rhizopus arrhizus var. delemar. The way in which this specimen filled the Petri dish is characteristic of this rapidly growing fungus. Also, characteristic is the colony’s cotton candy-like texture, and grayish yellow coloration.
