Abstract
Voelz, Herbert (University of West Virginia, Morgantown), and Donald J. Niederpruem. Fine structure of basidiospores of Schizophyllum commune. J. Bacteriol. 88:1497–1502. 1964.—The fine structure of basidiospores of the wood-rotting mushroom Schizophyllum commune was elucidated. Ungerminated spores were characterized by a fibrous cell wall, a cytoplasmic membrane, electron-dense granules, nuclei surrounded by nuclear envelopes with pores, and poorly defined mitochondria. Young germlings were still binucleate, whereas mitochondria appeared highly organized. Vacuolization appeared with germination, and elaborate pore structures were associated with septa.
