Abstract excerpt
The TU25 mutant strain of the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus grows well at 28 degrees C but not at 37 degrees C. Microscopic examination revealed that TU25 exhibited swelling at hyphal apices after a shift-up from 28 degrees C to 37 degrees C. The temperature sensitivity and hyphal swelling co-segregated through meiosis as expected for a single Mendelian factor, designated hyt1 (hyphal tip). Both defects could...
