FIGURE 5.

Growth and asexual sporulation of ΔdnmA and ΔfisA mutants are improved in oleate as sole carbon source. Conidia from strains RPA (WT), CVG30 (ΔdnmA), and CVG31 (ΔfisA) were inoculated on supplement MM plates containing either glucose or oleate as sole carbon source and incubated at 37°C for 3 days and photographed (Left) and conidia per square centimeter were determined (Right). Bars indicate standard deviation from three independent experiments. Data analyzed by one-way ANOVA, following Tukey’s test (^∗p< 0.05). Asterisks indicate significant differences with respect to the WT strain.
