Autophagy During Conidiation and Conidial Germination in Filamentous Fungi
27 Mar 2007
Abstract excerpt
Filamentous fungi form aerial hyphae on solid medium, and some of these differentiate into conidiophores for asexual sporulation (conidiation). In the filamentous deuteromycete, Aspergillus oryzae, aerial hyphae are formed from the foot cells and some differentiate into conidiophores, which are composed of vesicles, phialides and conidia. Recently, we isolated the yeast ATG8 gene homologue Aoatg8 from A. oryzae,...
