Figure 6. Vegetative growth and conidiation in N. crassa treated with SNP and AEMP3.

Figure 6

(a) NO released in different concentrations of SNP solution. All measurements were performed in 3 replicates. (b) Extension of basal hyphae on VM agar media supplemented with SNP. (c) Aerial hyphal extension (left panel) on the surface of VM liquid containing SNP and number of conidia (right panel) harvested from the culture after 5 days. All values are mean ± standard deviation of 3 replicate measurements and the experiments were repeated 3 times. Student t-test was performed between control and each treatment; *p < 0.05. (d) Hyphal development after 8 hours incubation in VM liquid supplemented with NO releasing nanoparticle AEMP3 (microscopic photographs). After 3 days, dry weight of mycelia mass harvested (graph). (e) Aerial hyphal extension (left panel) on the surface of VM liquid containing different concentrations of AEMP3 and number of conidia (right panel) harvested from cultures after 5 days. All values are mean ± standard deviation of 3 replicate measurements and the experiments were repeated 3 times.
