Abstract The effects of some alcohols on the morphology ofAureobasidium pullulans were studied. The transition from yeast-like cells to mycelia was induced by ethanol and methanol. We studied the kinetics of the transition induced by ethanol. Yeast-like cells became progressively enlarged and, after four days, germ tubes were apparent, giving rise, eventually, to adult mycelia. The germ tubes arose in the absence of glucose, but not as a result of glucose starvation.
