Characteristics of ShT-N and ShT-P colonies. (A) A mixture of pigmented (ShT-P) and non-pigmented (ShT-N) colonies of ATCC 33728T on 7H11 solid medium. (B) Subcloned colonies of ATCC 33728T. ShT-P and ShT-N were isolated and propagated. Only pigmented, yellow colonies were produced by ShT-P, whereas for ShT-N only non-pigmented, ivory colonies reproduced. The mycolactone-producing “M. shinshuense” strain Sh-753 was used as a positive control.
