a
Mycelium samples were obtained from exponentially growing cultures with glucose as the carbon source. Data are means and standard deviations from three or four independent determinations. ND, not detected; —, not determined.
b
Significantly different from the corresponding value for wild-type strain NW131, as determined by Student's t test (95% probability).
