摘要
Germinating Cochliobolus sativus spores were induced to form appressoria on a variety of artificial surfaces, including replicas of the barley leaf surface. Evidence was obtained for the involvement of chemical and topographic signals during induction of appressorium formation in C. sativus. Germ tube thigmotropism was also observed in vitro. Ultrastructure relevant to appressorium formation was observed, including the germ tube apex, apical swelling of the germ tube apex prior to appressorium formation, the appressorium with associated septation and the penetration peg. Cytochemical probes applied to germlings at the electron microscope level failed to detect alpha-D-mannan, alpha-D-glucan, beta-D-galactan, D-glcNAc or D-galNAc polymers in the extracellular mucilage associated with the fungal gernlings. The ultrastructure of hyphal apices from germlings grown under different nutritional conditions differed with respect to Spitzenkorper morphology, apex shape and in the quantity of associated extracellular mucilage. Experimental findings are discussed relative to current understanding of appressorium induction in more extensively studied systems.
