Twelve spp. in 11 tribes were inoculated with incompatible leaf-infecting fungi. In 779 of the 781 epidermal sites where Stemphylium botryosum [Pleospora herbarum] had initiated direct penetration, appositions developed in the epidermal cell walls and penetration was unsuccessful. When inoculated leaves were floated on cycloheximide (12 mu g/ml), to inhibit leaf responses, there was penetration in 767 of 771 sites and no wall thickening. Thus cycloheximide inhibited appositions and permitted epidermal penetration. Nine spp. were also inoculated with an incompatible isolate of Curvularia lunata [Cochliobolus lunatus]. Of 1828 penetration attempts studied, 1800 showed appositions without penetrations, 25 showed penetrations without appositions, and 3 showed penetrations through thin appositions. The number of penetration attempts/100 conidia of C. lunatus varied from 153 to 314. Cycloheximide resulted in 1469 penetrations without appositions and 52 appositions without penetrations. In all spp. cycloheximide inhibited the formation of appositions and permitted penetration by C. lunatus. When some spp. were inoculated with Helminthosporium maydis [Cochliobolus heterostrophus] race T the sites of attempted penetration showed appositions without penetration. Cycloheximide had the same effect. The morphology and colour of appositions differed widely among grass spp. but were uniform within a sp. inoculated with any of the 3 fungi. The results indicated that grasses have constitutive and inducible resistance mechanisms associated with the epidermis. The first mechanism restricts frequency of penetration and is not highly sensitive to cycloheximide. The second is correlated with appositional cell wall formation and is sensitive. The evidence that appositional wall formation is a general mechanism of resistance to fungal penetration in the Gramineae is discussed.
