Sensitivity of the wild-type strain of F. verticillioides (Strain 7600), the FvSET1 deletion mutant (ΔFvSet1), and the complementation strain (ΔFvSet1-C) to osmotic and oxidative stresses, and cell wall-damaging agents. (A) Comparisons were made on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) with or without 0.02% (w/v) congo red, 1 M sorbitol, 0.7 M NaCl, and 0.02% (w/v) SDS (Sodium dodecyl sulfate); and (B) mycelial growth inhibition was examined after each strain was incubated for three days on PDA supplemented with each compound. Bars denote standard errors from three experiments.
