Effect of different concentrations of arsenic on the growth of P. indica (A–B) in vitro. (A)P. indicia growth (after 5, 10, 15 and 20 days of incubation) in terms of hyphal extension from the center towards plate edges under different arsenic concentrations (0 mM, 0.01 mM, 0.05 mM, 0.1 mM, 0.2 mM, 0.3 mM, 0.6 mM, and 0.9 mM), (B) Analysis of the radius of fungal hyphae after 5, 10, 15 and 20 days of inoculation. The data is the mean values of three biological replicates with ±standard error.
