Abstract excerpt
We used actin staining and videomicroscopy to analyze the development from a spore to a young mycelium in the filamentous ascomycete Ashbya gossypii. The development starts with an initial isotropic growth phase followed by the emergence of germ tubes. The initial tip growth speed of 6-10 microm/h increases during early stages of development. This increase is transiently interrupted in response to the...
