Erysiphaceae

Cleistothecium of Microsphaera vanbruntiana, copyright W. N. Ellis.

Belongs within: Sordariomyceta.

The Erysiphaceae are a group of fungi including the powdery mildews. Members of this family have a white mycelium producing large, non-septate conidia on simple, erect conidiophores, and indehiscent perithecia containing non-septate ascospores.
