Demonstration of a septal pore in budding Candida albicans yeast cells

F C Odds. Sabouraudia. 1984.

Abstract

Electron microscopy of Candida albicans yeast cells grown in a peptone glucose broth at 37 degrees C revealed pores in the septum identical in appearance to those already described in the hyphal form of the fungus. The presence of septal pores in yeast cells may explain apparently synchronous post-septation events in parent and daughter cells, and emphasizes the close structural similarities between different morphological forms of C. albicans.
