Deleting Bclae1 changes the growth, morphology, and reproductive development. (A) The TB-31, ΔBclae1, ΔBclae1-C (X7), and Bclae1-OE-X4 mutants were photographed after 6 days of PDA growth under DD culture conditions, and the colony diameters were calculated (B). Shown are means and SEM, n = 3 independent biological replicates. *p < 0.05 versus the colony diameter of the TB-31 group. (C) Under DD or LD conditions, TB-31, ΔBclae1, ΔBclae1-C (X7), and Bclae1-OE-X4 mutants were counted for sclerotia and conidia numbers after 14 days of PDA growth. Shown are means and SEM, n = 3 independent biological replicates. *p < 0.05 versus the TB-31 group. (D) RT-qPCR examining the transcriptional levels of Bccry2, BcPKS13, and Bcltf2 in TB-31 and ΔBclae1. Shown are means and SEM, n = 3 independent biological replicates. **p < 0.01/***p < 0.001 versus the same genes of the TB-31 group.
