Open publisher page 14 citations

Abstract

Ascospore appendage ultrastructure is described for Remispora crispa, Remispora quadriremis, and Remispora stellata. The polar appendages are exuded through pores in the polar episporium and become extensions of the episporium. This form of appendage is compared with that reported for other species of Remispora and with other members of the Halosphaeriales. Key words: ascospore appendage, marine ascomycetes, taxonomy, ultrastructure
