Leaves and shoots of blueberries(Vaccinium spp.) and huckleberries (Gaylussacia sp.) when infected by ascospores of Monilinia spp. become ultraviolet-reflective and fragrant and secrete sugars at their lesions. Insects that normally pollinate these hosts are attracted to the discolored leaves, ingest the sugars, and transmit conidia to their flowers, resulting in sclerotia (mummy-berry) formation.
蓝莓(Vaccinium spp.)和越橘(Gaylussacia sp.)的叶片和嫩枝受到 Monilinia 属的子囊孢子感染后,会变得具有紫外反射性和芳香气味,并在病变处分泌糖份。通常为这些宿主授粉的昆虫会被变色的叶子吸引,摄入糖份,并将分生孢子传播到花朵上,导致形成菌核(木乃伊莓)。
