Figure 7
Colony growth of F. fujikuroi carO− and carO+ strains in the dark and under light.
(a) carO+ and carO− strains were spotted in standard DA minimal medium (104 conidia per drop) and documented after 2 days incubation under light. White bar represents 5 mm. (b) Influence of carbon source on colony size. Inoculation was done as described in (a) but in DA media with varying additional carbon sources as indicated. Colonies were either grown in the light or in the dark. (c) Linear growth experiments in race tubes. carO+ and carO− strains were grown in standard DA minimal medium (104 conidia per drop; n = 4) and colony length was measured over a period of 9 days. Mean values are given with standard deviation (y-bars).
