Characterization of the Polysaccharide and Protein Composition of Neurospora crassa Conidium, Perithecium, and Ascospore Cell Walls

We carried out carbohydrate composition and carbohydrate linkage analyses on Neurospora crassa cell walls from vegetative hyphae, conidia (asexual spores), perithecia (female mating structures), and ascospores (sexual spores). We show that the composition and structure of the cel...
