“Mutant phenotype” indicates whether the gene knockout strain has a significant change in colony morphology relative to WT grown on YEPLD. “−” indicates a significant decrease in CCM, “+” indicates a significant increase in CCM, “ = ” indicates no significant change. Blanks indicate mutants not tested or giving inconsistent results.

Notes: (a) Phenotype difference between a and α; (b) Phenotype difference between diploid backgrounds; (c) Haploid tested in only one strain background; (d) Phenotype difference between diploid backgrounds; (e) Diploid tested in only one strain background.
