Figure 8. Two Virulence Traits, Melanin Production and High Temperature Growth, Are Quantitative Traits.

Figure 8

The inbred population generated from strains XL304α and XL187a exhibited phenotypic variation in both melanin production (top) and growth at 39 °C (bottom). An equal number of cells were incubated on L-DOPA medium at 22 °C for 4 d (top) and on YPD medium at 39 °C for 4 d (bottom). The numbers above the first row indicate the score assigned to the corresponding progeny in the first row. α and a indicate the parental strains XL304α and XL187a.
