FIGURE 1.

Growth of Periconia macrospinosa, Leptodontidium sp., and Cadophora sp. under salt stress. DSEs were grown on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium supplemented with different NaCl concentrations for 3 weeks at 25°C. One-way non-parametric Kruskal–Wallis test (P = 0.05, n = 15; independent for each fungus) was carried out followed by Dunn’s multiple comparison test that showed significant differences between the growth of the DSEs under different salt concentrations and are indicated by different letters. Bars represent standard deviations of the means.
