Deletion of nsdC and nsdD results in reduced conidiation. The wild-type CA14, three ΔnsdC (16, 17, and 21) and ΔnsdD (2, 3, and 7) mutants, and two ΔnsdC (C2 and C5) and ΔnsdD (C4 and C5) complementation isolates were grown on YGT-U agar for 5 days at 30°C with illumination. Values are the means and standard deviations from the two samplings each of conidia from the three separate transformants of the deletion mutants and two transformants of the complementation isolates. Bars with different letters have values that are significantly different (P < 0.003).
