Fig. 4.

Pulse shape profiles of several morphological classes. Hyphae (a), small clumps (b), large clumps (c), and pellets (d). High viability (left column), reduced viability (middle column), low viability in microwaved samples (right column). FSC signal (black line), SSC signal (blue line), FL-green signal (green line), and FL-red signal (red line). Lines top to bottom: increases in FSC and SSC signal indicate rise in particle size and compactness due to morphological class defined in Fig. 3. Columns left to right: a decline in viability is seen with increasing FL-red signals and decreasing FL-green signals
