Comparison of Gas1 genes in diverse fungi and differentially expressed Gas1 genes in A. oligospora. A. Comparison of the number of Gas1 genes in diverse fungi. Gas1 genes in diverse fungi were retrieved from GenBank. A. oligospora Gas1 genes were used as the queries. B. Cluster and transcript analyses of Gas1 genes in A. oligospora. The genes marked in color have altered mRNA expression. Orange is upregulated and green is downregulated. The abbreviations of fungal strains are shown in Table S8. C. Colonies of the WT and ΔGas1 mutants incubated on PDA, TG, and TYGA plates at 28°C for 5 days. D. Conidia yields of the WT and ΔGas1 mutants incubated on CMY plates at 28°C for 14 days. E. The number of traps produced by the WT and ΔGas1 mutants induced by nematodes for 48 h
