Figure 2: MoVrp1 is involved in colony pigmentation.

(A) Colony morphology of the wildtype Guy11, ∆Movrp1#54, ∆Movrp1#105 and complemented strain was observed on CM agar plates in the dark for 7 days at 28 °C. (B) Expression of three pigmentation associated genes in the wildtype Guy11 and ∆Movrp1 mutant. The experiments were repeated three times with triple replications. Error bars represent standard deviation from the mean, and t test analysis is shown with *p < 0.01 versus the wildtype Guy11.
