Impact of Nag1 silencing on microsclerotia formation. a Differences in microsclerotia development between WT and Nag1-S3 after 108 h, 6 days, and 12 days of growth on BM. b Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation of the early stages of microsclerotia formation. In WT, arrows represent aerial hyphae at 36 h, swollen hyphae at 48 h, and gathered swollen cells and microsclerotium at 60 h and 72 h. In Nag1-S3, the arrow indicates the aerial conidiophore
