TABLE 2.
Growth rate and conidiation efficiency of the strains B-1, FB-3, EB-5, and BM-3
| Straina | Production of ChsBb | Mean ± SD (%)c
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Colony diam (mm) | No. of conidia (106/mm2) | ||
| B-1 | ChsB | 38.6 ± 1.0 (100) | 2.9 ± 0.3 (100) |
| FB-3 | FLAG-ChsB | 36.6 ± 1.1 (95) | 2.8 ± 0.1 (97) |
| EB-5 | EGFP-ChsB | 32.4 ± 1.4 (92) | 1.8 ± 0.1 (62) |
| BM-3 | 5.8 ± 0.6 (15) | (>0.01) | |
a
Strains were grown on the Y2G plates for 72 h.
b
It is likely that a very small amount of ChsB was also produced from alcA(p)-chsB in each strain by the leaky expression of alcA promoter under the condition used in this study (see the text).
c
The ratio of growth rate and conidiation efficiency of each strain to that of the wild-type strain is shown in parentheses. The conidiation efficiency of BM-3/A1 was below the measurable level.
