Description
Microthyriales are microscopic fungi found on plant leaves and stems. They form tiny, shield-like structures called thyriothecia on the plant surface. These fungi are widespread but often overlooked due to their small size. Some species in this group can cause plant diseases, while others live harmlessly on their host plants.
