When incubated at 45 degrees C in the absence of added mannose, pregrown hyphae of a temperature-sensitive, mannose-relief mutant (mnrA455) of Aspergillus nidulans grew normally for a short time (4-5 h) before exhibiting an abnormal morphology consisting of the production by hyphae of discrete sp...
