title: Lysosomes in the cultivated mushroom (Psalliota bispora quel.).
abstract: Fungine lysosomes are difficult to identify because some vesicular structures are present in hyphae, such as provacuoles, lomasome precursor, peroxisomes and spherosomes. Moreover, many Hymenomycetes, as the common cultivated mushroom (Psalliota bispora Quel.), lack tipical Golgi apparatuses, making ontogenesis of lysosomes a matter of difficult interpretation. As shown before (Scannerini, 1969) the hyphae of this fungus contain vesicles that reveal acid glycerophosphatase activity, thus we studied these organelles with morphological, cytochemical and biochemical criteria.
