The branch on the left is seen with a good-sized knot which is covered with the conspicuous ciusted-cup spores. The branchlets of this branch are seen to be thicker than the normal branches; the leaves are shorter and not as green and die early. 2. Section through a knot. 3. Section through the same branch as shown in 2, but below the knot, showing that a very great growth has been caused by the parasitic fungus in 2. Original.
