After 2-3 weeks of incubation at room temperature, extensive hyphae were produced and both basidiospores and blastospores could be observed under microscope. |
|
The diploid nuclei of blastospores can undergo meiosis, including recombination, to form haploid basidiospores that can be dispersed. |
|
Candida albicans has no extracorporeal life cycle and grows as both blastospores and hypha within the body. |
