ID on Agar Cultures

Recommended Posts

Greetings all, i have recently noticed these black spots appearing on a few of my Cube cultures (on malt agar plates) i have attached photo's, doesn't seem to be any bacterial or pre-transfer contam. Seems to be a growth on the mycelium itself, any assistance would be much appreciated.

Those are droplets of mycelial metabolites, not contamination
