Secretion and endocytosis in subapical cells support hyphal tip growth in the fungus Trichoderma reesei

Abstract Filamentous fungi colonise substrates by invasive growth of multi-cellular hyphae. It is commonly accepted that hyphae expand by tip growth that is restricted to the first apical cell, where turgor pressure, exocytosis and endocytosis cooperate to expand the apex. Here we show that, contrar...
