FIG 3 .

WetA-mediated regulation of asexual development in the three Aspergillus species. A schematic diagram of the WetA-mediated regulatory model of conidiation is shown. Genes with increased, decreased, and unaffected mRNA levels in the ΔwetA conidia are labeled with red (WetA-inhibited), blue (WetA-activated), and gray (not affected by WetA) circles, and the WetA-regulatory effects in the ΔAniwetA, ΔAfuwetA, and ΔAflwetA conidia are listed under the gene names at the left, middle, and right, respectively. There are two orthologs of fphA in A. fumigatus; one is WetA inhibited, and the other is not regulated by WetA.
