Abstract
Fuller, Melvin S. (Brown U., Providence, R. I.) Biochemical and microchemical study of the cell walls of Rhizidiomyces sp. Amer. Jour. Bot. 47(10): 838–842. lllus. 1960.—The presence of chitin in the cell walls of the fungus Rhizidiomyces is demonstrated by qualitative analysis of enzymatic and hydrochloric‐acid hydrolysates of partially cleaned cell walls. Qualitative examination of the enzymatic and acid hydrolysates did not, however, serve for the detection of cellulose present in the cell walls of Rhizidiomyces. With microchemical tests, both chitin and cellulose can be detected. These microchemical tests served to indicate the localization of the chitin and cellulose in the cell walls of mature plants before and during zoospore discharge.
