FIG. 6.
Effect of 0.01 mM (A) and 10 mM (B) putrescine on the growth of C. albicans. Cell suspensions of strain ABH4 (ura3/ura3 Δodc/Δodc) were analyzed by spot assay for the ability to grow on solid Lee medium plates containing 5 μg of calcofluor white per ml (row 1), 0.5 M NaCl (row 2), 10 mM caffeine (row 3), or 0.005% SDS (row 4). Growth differences were monitored after 3 days at 28°C. WT, wild type.
