The distribution of 14C in the isolated fraction was studied by light microscopic autoradiography. Solvent extraction prior to autoradiography indicated that most of the 14C resided in compounds insoluble in ethanol, chloroform and methanol. The haustorial complexes contained 82 to 84 % of the 14C in the fraction. Considerable variation, not correlated with haustorium age, was found in the labelling of individual haustorial complexes. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/00221287-116-2-529
