Abstract
In basidia of Coprinus cinereus and Boletus rubinellus at early interphase II of meiosis numerous microtubules are oriented longitudinally in the sterigmata. Their orientation in the rest of the cell is predominantly parallel to the long axis. In Coprinus cinereus cytoplasmic vesicles, apparently derived from Golgi cisternae, are involved in tip growth of the sterigmata and basidiospore growth. Additional information is provided on the Golgi apparatus in the basidium, and the role of microtubules and microbodies is discussed.Keywords
