a

Total number of events observed during 30 min for 35 nuclei. The 5 front nuclei of 7 different hyphae were followed for 30 min (see examples of movies shown in Fig. 1B). The time interval used was 1 min. Definitions for forward and backward are given in Results.

b

P values derived from two-tailed Fisher's exact test (R software).

c

Amplitudes (in μm/min) indicate the maximal distance covered by a nucleus within a 1-min time interval.

d

This speed is an average of the growth speeds of the 7 hyphae used for the quantification.
