Hyphal morphology of the control and agsB disruption strains grown in CD liquid medium for 12 h at 37°C.
(A) Hyphal pellets of the control strain, showing hyphal aggregation (dark areas). Scale bar = 200 µm. (B) Hyphal tip morphology of the control strain. High magnification of the hyphal image in the white frame in panel A. Scale bar = 50 µm. (C) Dispersed hyphae of the agsB disruption strain (DagsB). Scale bar = 200 µm. (D) Hyphal tip morphology of the DagsB strain. High magnification of the hyphal image in the white frame in panel A. Scale bar = 50 µm.
