Comparison of stress response between the WT and mutants. (A) Colonial morphology of fungal strains under stresses of osmotic, oxidative, and cell wall interfering agents stress. (B) Relative growth inhibition (RGI) of fungal colonies after 7 days grown at 28°C on TG plates supplemented with 0.2 M NaCl, 0.5 M sorbitol, 0.07 mM Congo red, 0.7 mM SDS, 10 mM H₂O₂, and 0.05 mM menadione. (C) RGI values of the WT and each mutant grown at different temperatures. An asterisk indicates a significant difference compared to the WT (p < 0.05).
