Abstract:
Dibutyryl-cAMP (150 μM) added to culture medium ofMucor rouxii cultures (106 spores/ml) affects its morphology by a reversible maintenance of isodiametric growth without significant alterations of growth parameters such as dry weight, number of nuclei, DNA content, and protein content. In cultures containing 104 spores/ml, the effect on morphology is accompanied by a more severe impairment of general growth and is obtained at higher dibutyryl-cAMP concentrations (500 μM). In cultures containing 106 spores/ml, rounded cells, 19 μm in diameter, with 70 nuclei are obtained, while in cultures containing 104 spores/ml, gigantic rounded cells, 70 μm in diameter, with up to 1000 nuclei are obtained. © 1992 Academic Press, Inc.
