Abstract

Homogenous cell populations of increasing cell volume may have been isolated from exponential and stationary culture of Candida albicans by centrifugation on a sucrose gradient. Observations of the yeast-mycelial transition using these populations showed the following. (i) No fraction from early logarithmic phase cells was unable to undergo morphological transition. (ii) The time of initiation of germ tube production was correlated with cell size in stationary-phase cultures. (iii) The rate of appearance of germ tubes was nearly identical in all fractions measured. (iv) Addition of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine to homogeneous cell populations decreased the time of initial appearance of germ tubes but did not affect the rate of appearance after initiation.
