The location of melanin in appressoria of Colletotrichum lagenarium was determined by ultrastructural comparison of the parent strain 104-T, an albino mutant 79215, and an albino mutant 79215 treated with scytalone, a melanin precursor in this fungus. Melanin in appressoria of the parent strain 104-T and that of albino mutant 79215 treated with scytalone was located external to the plasmalemma as a smooth, thin, electron-dense layer. A comparable layer was not observed in appressoria of the albino mutant 79215 without scytalone. Electron microscopic observation of a median section of pigmented appressoria of albino mutant 79215 treated with scytalone indicated that the melanized layer extended over the appressoria with the exception of the pore which provides an opening for the emergence of the infection peg.

Better Than

The aromatic polyamides form a class of fibers having mechanical properties which are much better than those of aliphatic polyamides. Currently, the accepted morphology of these fibers as proposed by M.G. Dobb, et al. is a radial arrangement of pleated sheets, with the plane of the pleats parallel to the axis of the fiber. We have recently obtained evidence which supports a different morphology of this type of fiber, using ultramicrotomy and ion-thinning techniques to prepare specimens for transmission and scanning electron microscopy.
