Hyphal heterogeneity in Aspergillus oryzae is the result of dynamic closure of septa by Woronin bodies

RJ Bleichrodt, GJ van Veluw, B Recter… - Molecular …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Hyphae of higher fungi are compartmentalized by septa. These septa contain a central pore
that allows for inter‐compartmental and inter‐hyphal cytoplasmic streaming. The cytoplasm …

Switching from a unicellular to multicellular organization in an Aspergillus niger hypha

RJ Bleichrodt, M Hulsman, HAB Wösten, MJT Reinders - MBio, 2015 - Am Soc Microbiol
Pores in fungal septa enable cytoplasmic streaming between hyphae and their
compartments. Consequently, the mycelium can be considered unicellular. However, we …
