Cultural pairing tests. a Pairing of multiple spore diploid isolate, Mack1985, with itself (top), two haploid A35 isolates of Armillaria sp. nov. (right and bottom) and a haploid A4 A. novae-zelandiae isolate (left); the A. novae-zelandiae isolate has remained white and fluffy indicating non-interfertility, while the change in appearance to dark and appressed-crustose of the two A35 isolates denotes interfertility with isolate Mack1985, signifying that it also belongs to Armillaria sp. nov. (Scion CN 18632). b Pairing of haploid isolate NZFS 2427 of Armillaria sp. nov. with haploid isolates NZFS 3974–3977 from a different collection of the same species; that with NZFS 3975 is interfertile (bottom). In both images, the plate is 90 mm in diameter
