Intrastrain recombinants are unstable diploids. (A) Confocal fluorescent image of conidia harvested from cadavers of Galleria mellonella coinfected by Mr2575-GFP and Mr2575-RFP. Green and red arrows indicate conidia expressing GFP or RFP only. Yellow conidia are recombinants expressing both GFP and RFP. (B) Parental strains (Mr2575-GFP and Mr2575-RFP) and their recombinants are uninucleate, confirming that recombinants are diploid. DNA was stained with DAPI (blue, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole). (C) Recombinant mycelia expressing both GFP and RFP appear yellow when GFP and RFP fields are merged. Scale bar indicates 10 μm.
