Phenotypic analysis of N. crassa Δacs-3 mutant strain compared to the wild type with FA-supplemented medium. Open and solid diamonds represent data for the wild type, while open and solid circles represent data for the Δacs-3 mutant. Solid diamonds and circles represent biomass accumulation in submerged liquid culture growth in VM–2% Tween 80. Open diamonds and circles represent GC-FID quantification of FAMEs derived from total lipids over the growth time course. Lipid was quantified per mg of lyophilized biomass. All values are representative of triplicate biological samples. Error bars indicate standard deviations.
