Abstract
Pathogenic strains of Sporothrix schenkii may show triangular spores, whose angular shape is maintained by a tiebeam effect in the inner cell wall structure. This difference in wall structure lies adjacent to a folded and possibly more active part of the spore cytoplasm. The supposed generation of asci in old cultures was simulated by the death of hyphae which are reinvaded by intrahyphal growth with intrahyphal spore production, while true asci were not seen.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
