Zusammenfassung This 1979 symposium volume charts a number of significant advances in our knowledge of the cytology! physiology and biochemistry of the growth of mould hyphae. The articles concentrate on the detained investigations of a number of well known fungi! including Aspergillus! Neurospora! Mucor! Schizophyllum! Coprinus and Saccharomyces.
