Pseudohyphae

∞ generated and posted on 2016.02.23 ∞

Filamentous growth by fungi that otherwise are more yeast like than mold like.

That is, pseudohyphae represent yeast growth as chains of cells that fail to detach rather than as fully separated cells.

Alternatively one can imagine pseudohyphae as representing very short and/or not terribly effective hyphae/hyphal growth.
