Ultrastructure of septal complex in Filobasidiella neoformans (Cryptococcus neoformans)

K J Kwon-Chung et al. J Bacteriol. 1976 Apr.

Abstract

Electron microscopy of Filobasidiella neoformans, the perfect state of Cryptococcus neoformans, revealed basidiomycete doliporesepta between hyphal cells and also between clamp connections and adjacent cells. The pore-occluding material was a heterogeneous flattened plate with dark margins and a lighter center, as seen in the species of Filobasidium. Representative basidiomycete parenthesomes were lacking, and endoplasmic reticulum was seen in the dolipore region.
