THE DISTRIBUTION OF POLYSACCHARIDES AND BASOPHILIC SUBSTANCES DURING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MUSHROOM COPRINUS

Two species of Coprinus (C. lagopus and C. curtus) were examined, using histochemical techniques, and it was found that prior to sporulation there were two distinct zones in the gills, one containing glycogen and one containing basophilic substances. The glycogen zone is at the base of the hymenium, extending into the central tramal layer. The basophilic zone is at the outer tips of the basidia. Upon sporulation both these groups of substances entered the spores, leaving no demonstrable material within the cells of the gills.
