Protoplasma Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Striated fibres with a 60–67 nm periodicity and a diameter of up to 110 nm are reported from the mycelium, conidiophores, immature conidia and germ tubes of the hyphomycetous fungusPleiochaeta setosa. The fibres are compared with others reported in various cell types, and suggestions are made as to their possible form and function.
