Figure 3. Different effects of ATG1 and ATG8 genes on spore development of B. bassiana.
(A) Quantification of conidial yields in various strains. The indicated strain was grown on SDAY plates, and conidial production was examined at 7 days post inoculation. (B) Quantification of blastospore yields in various strains. Conidia of the indicated strain were inoculated into SDB media, and the blastospore production was quantified after a 3-day incubation with aeration. Significant differences are indicated by the different lowercase letters on columns. Error bars represent standard deviation from three replicate assays.
