Abstract excerpt
Yeasts show few distinct morphological characteristics. The two basic forms of yeast, unicellular yeast and multicellular hyphal form, exhibit dimorphism. In a recent study on Trichosporon asahii, a dimorphic basidiomycetous yeast that causes trichosporonosis, the addition of magnesium induced hyphal formation and changes in organelle distribution. A detailed observation of organelle distribution revealed that...
