FIG. 4.
Developmental morphologies of the ssp mutants. The developmental morphologies of the wild type and the mutants, containing the indicated mutations in an otherwise wild-type background, on starvation agar at various times during development are shown. The wild-type strain is DK1622, and the mutants are HK1126 (ssp5::TnV.AS), HK1130 (ssp9::TnV.AS), HK1131 (ssp10::TnV.AS), and HK1132 (ssp11::TnV.AS). The magnification is approximately 2.7-fold.
