Abstract

The formation of lateral branches, in response to induction by metabolites containing amino acids, in the genera Achlya, Saprolegnia and Dictyuchus is accompanied by the production and release of the enzyme cellulase. Treatments which prevent the production and release of cellulase also prevent the formation of lateral branches. Inhibitor studies with cycloheximide indicate that the branching/cellulase response requires protein synthesis.
