[Micromorphological features of Pleurotus pulmonarius (Fr.) Quel. and P. ostreatus (Jacq.) P. Kumm. strains in pure and binary culture with yeasts].
Micromorphology of oyster mushrooms Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq.) Quel. and P. pulmonarius (Fr.) Quel. was studied in pure and binary culture with yeasts (Cryptococcus laurentii 1629, Rhodotorula minuta 2790, Sporidiobolus salmonicolor (see text for symbol) 31A-11, Candida krusie 3452, Pichia holstii 3438). The cultures were cultivated on malt-agar and water agar. Various mycelial structures were described: strands, rings, thin searching mycelium, clamps, crystals, head-like offshoots, mycelial fragments, chlamydospores, and coralloid hyphae. Vegetative mycelia interact in different ways (forming anastomoses, strands, system of thin anucleate hyphae) within the same culture. Head-like offshoots of mycelial cells, previously regarded as spores of asexual reproduction, appeared to lack nuclei and to be filled with polyphosphates. Coralloid hyphae, which induce yeast cell lysis after direct contact, were detected only in binary culture with yeasts under condition of nitrogen deficit. The same way of feeding is typical for carnivorous mushrooms.
