Figure 6. Effect of rdr gene disruption and hypovirus CHV-1/EP713 on C. parasitica colony growth and morphology.

Figure 6

The colonies of uninfected parental strain DK80 and gene disruption mutant strains are shown in the left column while the corresponding hypovirus CHV-1/EP713- infected strains are shown in the right column. The uninfected triple rdr mutant strain Δrdr1/2/3 and uninfected Δdcl2 strains are shown at the bottom of the left column while the corresponding CHV-1/EP713-infected strains are shown in corresponding positions in the right column. Note the severe growth and morphological changes exhibited by the CHV-1/EP713-infected Δdcl2 strain. Cultures were grown for 7 days on PDA.
