  • Title: Nutritional factors determine germ tube formation in Candida albicans.
    Author: Holmes AR, Shepherd MG.
    Journal: J Med Vet Mycol; 1988 Apr; 26(2):127-31. PubMed ID: 3047355.
    Abstract:
    Following a short (3 h) period of carbon starvation, exponential phase yeast cells of Candida albicans rapidly (T50 45 min) formed germ tubes in a glucose/ammonium ion solution. The presence of both a sugar (glucose, sucrose or galactose) and a nitrogen source (ammonium ion or an amino acid metabolized via glutamate) was critical for morphogenesis.
