Abstract
The surface of U. spisuli spores was examined ultrastructurally, gaining further evidence in support of the hypothesis that surface fine structures of haplosporidian spores are taxonomically significant. Spores have 2-3 extensions which subdivide at the spore body and flare out for varying distances along the cell surface. Circular depressions of 49-208 .mu.m diameter are found on the whole cell surface except over the pore region.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
