Kojic acid inhibits melanin biosynthesis and sclerotia formation in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. (A) Images showing sclerotia formation after treatment with 10 mM KA (1.42 mg/ml KA). (B) Concentration of 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) in S. sclerotiorum cells after treatment with 10 mM KA (each treatment mean represents the average of three repetitions). (C) Relative mRNA levels of key genes involved in the biosynthesis of DHN and other melanin compounds after treatment with 10 mM KA (each treatment mean represents the average of five repetitions). Significance levels at *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001, and no significance (ns). Bars represent the SD.
