Fig. 1

BcSec4 is required for conidiation of B. cinerea. a Conidial production of B05.10, the ΔBcSEC4 mutant, and complemented strains observed on PDA plates at 25 °C for 7 days. b Conidiation capacity of the indicated strains. Conidia were harvested from PDA plates after incubation for 7 days at 25 °C. c Conidiophore morphology of the ΔBcSEC4 mutant on PDA plates for 7 days. d Percentage of abnormal conidiophores produced by the indicated strains. More than 100 conidiophores of each strain were measured in each experiment. e Germination rates examined under a microscope after 12 h of incubation in YEPD liquid medium. f The lengths of germ tubes examined after 12 h of incubation in YEPD liquid medium. All data are represented as means ± standard deviations (SDs) from three independent experiments with triplicate slides examined for each treatment. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences (P < 0.01)
