a
Most strains in this study were assigned a lowercase letter code for reference purposes (Fig. 2 to 5). Strain names that differ by the numbers/letters following their hyphen indicate strains that were single-conidium-derived colonies isolated during the same mycovirus transfer attempt (for example, VMDA2-12 and VMDA2-37). VTC, mycovirus transfer control strain. The aflR(IRT)::trpC transgene used in this study is the previously described aflR(IRT1300)::trpC transgene (11).
