MglA mutations abolish or alter fruiting body formation. Fruiting body formation of mglA mutants was compared with the WT strain on TPM starvation medium containing 1.5% agar as described in Methods. a) Wild type DK1622(mgl+). b) DK6204 (mgl-) c. MxH2278 (mglA + mglA-L124K merodiploid). d). MxH2279 (mglA- + mglA-L124K). e). MxH2336 (mglA + mglA-N141A merodiploid). f). MxH2338 (mglA- + mglA-N141A). g). MxH2360 (mglA + mglA-G21V merodiploid). h). MxH2361 (mglA- + mglA-G21V). i). MxH2358 (mglA + mglA-L22V merodiploid). j). MxH2359 (mglA- + mglA-L22V). k). MxH2425 (mglA + mglA-T78A merodiploid). l). MxH2247 (mglA- + mglA-T78A). m). MxH2428 (mglA + mglA-T78D merodiploid). n). MxH2432 (mglA- + mglA-T78D). Photographs were taken with a Nikon FXA microscope at 100× magnification. Bar = 50 μm.
