HGT of chromosomal cyp51AR in the A. fumigatus CEA10 background. (A) Experimental outline and result demonstrating HGT between akuBKU80-cyp51AR donor and CEA10-hph recipient strains under VCZ+Hyg selection. (B) Conidial diameter of akuBKU80-cyp51AR and CEA10-hph parental strains and colonies 1 to 3 generated under VCZ+Hyg selection (****, P < 0.001). (C) Propidium iodide nuclear staining (left; representative image from flow cytometry analysis) and (D) flow cytometry analysis (right) of CEA10-hph parental strain (green line, mean intensity of 26,171 arbitrary units) and colony 1 (red line, mean intensity 53,212 arbitrary units), generated under VCZ+Hyg selection.
