| tuberculina-rusts: a unique basidiomycetous interfungal cellular interaction with horizontal nuclear transfer. | cellular interaction of the basidiomycete tuberculina persicina with the haploid stages of two rusts puccinia silvatica and tranzschelia pruni-spinosae was analyzed by serial-section electron microscopy of chemically fixed samples and samples subjected to high-pressure freezing and freeze substitution. tuberculina persicina is a contact parasite, forming neither haustoria nor other intracellular structures. however, at contact areas between t. persicina and its hosts, distinct interfungal intera ... | 2004 | 21148917 |
