Journal ArticleDOI
Morphogenensis of the carpophore of coprinus cinereus
TL;DR: It is concluded that cap development is regulated by a metabolism quite distinct from those of either the parental mycelium or the stipe, and that the fundamental metabolic changes occurring throughout carpophore development are orchestrated by light.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphogenesis of aerial sclerotia of coprinus lagopus
TL;DR: Strains which failed to produce sclerotia behaved as stable variants, sclerotor non-production segregating as a single gene, and some linkage information obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of aerial and submerged sclerotia of coprinus lagopus
TL;DR: A layer of cells with pigmented thick walls (called brown matting) which differentiated at the air/agar interface was interpreted as an aspect of sclerotial behaviour since it was regularly formed by strains which produced submerged sclerotsia and was composed of cells of similar structure to those of the outermost layer of the submerged mycelotium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytochemical localization of glutamate dehydrogenases during carpophore development in coprinus cinereus
TL;DR: The NAD- and NADP-linked glutamate dehydrogenases were detected in frozen sections of carpophore tissues by means of tetrazolium salt, and from the earliest stages NAD-glutamate dehydrogenase was uniformly distributed in the basidial cells of the hymenium, and as the carpophores developed an increasing proportion of cells ofthe subhymenium came to express enzyme activity.
