Notes:
Abstract Sporulation inBipolaris oryzae was induced by UV radiation (295 nm), but the number of conidia gradually decreased with increasing duration of UV radiation longer than 1 min. The inductive effect of UV radiation can be nullified by blue light (459 nm) applied immediately before or after inductive UV radiation shorter than 1 min. In contrast, the number of conidia increased with an increasing duration of blue light applied after inductive UV radiation longer than 1 min, but not if it was applied before UV radiation. The present study firstly revealed the possibility of photoreactivation inB. oryzae sporulation.
