Cell biology of conidial anastomosis tubes in Neurospora crassa.

Eukaryotic cell - 1 May 2005

Roca M Gabriela, Arlt Jochen, Jeffree Chris E, Read Nick D

Abstract excerpt

Although hyphal fusion has been well documented in mature colonies of filamentous fungi, it has been little studied during colony establishment. Here we show that specialized hyphae, called conidial anastomosis tubes (CATs), are produced by all types of conidia and by conidial germ tubes of Neurospora crassa. The CAT is shown to be a cellular element that is morphologically and physiologically distinct from a...
