title: [Effects of light on reproductive processes in fungi; hypotheses on the identity of photoreceptors. A bibliographic revue].
abstract: The present review describes the effects of light on reproductive processes in fungi, mainly when action spectra are available. The study of these has resulted in three kinds of photoresponses observable in fungi: - responses only to UV light (230-380 nm) - responses to NUV and blue light (300-520nm) - responses to great wavelengths of the visible spectrum. The photomorphogenetic processes on the control of these same photoreceptor pigments are reviewed.
