Abstract
SummaryThe pattern of incorporation of 14C into the thallus during incubation with H14CO3‐ in the light suggested that a substance in the 80% ethanol insoluble fraction, an unknown compound (probably a sugar phosphate) and glucose were intermediates in the transfer of carbon to the fungus. Results are presented which are consistent with the hypothesis that the alga releases a glucan which the fungus hydrolyses extra cellularly to form glucose. This glucose is then taken up by the fungus and converted to mannitol.
