Figure 6: The role FlbC and FlbD in activating brlA, and a model for regulation of the commencement of conidiation.

From: Negative regulation and developmental competence in Aspergillus

Figure 6

(A) Levels of brlA mRNA during the life cycle of WT (FSCG4), ΔnsdD (TNJ108), ΔnsdD ΔflbC (TNJ176) and ΔnsdD ΔflbD (TNJ178) strains are shown. The numbers indicate time (h) of incubation in liquid submerged culture (Vege), and post asexual developmental induction (Asex). C = conidia. Equal loading of total RNA was confirmed by ethidium bromide staining of rRNA. (B) A model depicting the roles of Flbs, VosA, and NsdD in governing the acquisition of developmental competence and the commencement of conidiation (see text).
