Hi,
Yesterday I bought some rhizomes of Zingiber officinale for kitchen use in a supermarket. It was declared as "organic" and imported from China. With the naked eye I noticed some black spots that turned out to be heaps of conidia under the dissecting microscope, ejected from long beaked obpyriform pycnidia (0.24 x 0.6 mm) of waxy colour, the "beak" turned out to be fasciculate, consisting of a bundle of hyphae.
Conidia: lemon-shaped, dark brown sometimes with lipid bodies, 19.5 - 23 x 12-15µm
Someone wih an idea?
