Abstract
The septal pore apparatus was studied in Poria latemarginata, Polyporus tomentosus, and Rhizoctonia solani. Fixation by potassium permanganate was compared with fixation by glutaraldehyde – osmium tetroxide. Potassium permanganate reduced the size of the septal swelling about 50% and destroyed much of the internal integrity of the septal swelling. In glutaraldehyde – osmium tetroxide fixed material, a fibrillar network extended from the cross wall throughout the septal swelling. Except for this network, the septal swelling was electron transparent and similar in appearance to a vacuole. A rim of electronopaque material, attached to the septal swelling, surrounded the pore mouth in Polyporus tomentosus and Rhizoctonia solani.
