    Notes: Summary After a specific time of glutaraldehyde-acrolein fixation, microtubule walls appear to be composed of single 6.5–7.5 nm diameter osmiophilic subunits. Variations in the duration of glutaraldehyde-acrolein and also glutaraldehyde-osmium fixation reveal a two layered wall containing osmiophilic subunits, 4.0–4.5 nm in diameter, arranged radially, in tandem. The double-layered wall is demonstrated by microdensitometer traces. These observations are discussed in relation to previously proposed models of microtubule substructure.

    Notes: Summary Growing hyphae of the oomyceteSaprolegnia ferax wounded by impalement with a ca. 0.2 μm diameter glass microelectrode normally respond within seconds with an apically directed cytoplasmic contraction followed by production of a plug which encases the electrode and occludes its recording of transmembrane potentials. This plug contains callose and Ca2+-associated membranes. To characterize the rapid wounding response, we disrupted specific filamentous (F) actin populations and Ca2+ regulation. Plug formation is inhibited by disruption of F-actin populations and low exogenous Ca2+ but not by inhibition of stretch-activated Ca2+ channels with Gd3+. Therefore, stretch-activated channels are not the immediate sensor. Instead, sensing may involve strain on the actin cytoskeleton which triggers the occlusion response. This wound response is qualitatively similar to the production of septa which isolate developing sporangia and seal severed hyphae, indicating the use of a normal basic cellular developmental system as a protective mechanism against environmental damage. The wound response is essential, since an inability to seal sites of mechanical damage is potentially catastrophic in acellular coenocytic organisms.

    Notes: Summary Nuclei in protoplasts ofEntomophaga aulicae contain abundant condensed chromatin and a large central nucleolus. The metaphase spindle occupies a small eccentric area of the nucleus while the remainder of the nucleus is filled with condensed chromatin. Small portions of condensed chromatin are aligned along a broad metaphase plate and connected to the spindle poles by kinetochore microtubules. The nucleus associated organelle (NAO) is a solid barlike structure which lies at the spindle poles and is closely associated with the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope. Comparison of the nuclear characteristics ofE. aulicae with those of other members of theEntomophthorales supports the separation of theEntomophthoraceae from theBasidiobolaceae andAncylistaceae. Further comparison of details of nuclear division in theEntomophthoraceae, specifically NAO morphology, may be useful in helping to delineate evolutionary lines within the family.
