Table 4.
Effect of INT1 expression on the bud site selection pattern of C. albicans strains
Strain (n) | Relevant genotype | % Axial | % Bipolar | % Random |
---|---|---|---|---|
CAF2 (490) | INT1/INT1 | 58 | 42 | 0 |
CAG3 (531) | int1/int1 | 26 | 73 | 1 |
CAG5 (317) | int1/int1∷INT1 | 47 | 51 | 2 |
Strains were grown overnight to saturation in rich (YPAD) medium at 28°C and stained with Calcofluor white to detect bud scars. χ2 analysis showed that CAF2, CAG3, and CAG5 were significantly different from each other at the p < 0.005 level.
