Microscopic examination of Geotrichum sivicola and Geotrichum candidum colonies after 1 week of growth on Mitis Salivarius Agar. A1and A2 photos show hyphae and arthrospores of Geotrichum sivicola. The hyphae are septate, and the arthroconidia are hyaline and of elongated rectangular form. Photos B1and B2 show hyphae and arthrospores of Geotrichum candidum. The hyphae are hyaline with a typical septate. Fertile hypha are fragmented to produce slightly inflating arthroconidia with different shapes ranging from rounded to cylindrical (barrel-shaped or rounded at the ends). Magnification × 400
