Deletion of VdChs5 and VdChs7 affected the cell wall thickness of hyphae in Verticillium dahliae. a Transmission electron microscope images of the transverse section and longitudinal section in wild-type strain V592 and ΔVdChs5Chs7 mutants. The ΔVdChs5Chs7 mutant cell wall is thinner than wild-type strain V592. Scale bars, 0.2 μm. b Statistical analysis on cell wall thickness of hyphae transverse section and longitudinal section in wild-type strain V592 and ΔVdChs5Chs7 mutants. Data represent means and standard deviation from three independent biological replicates. *** indicates significant differences at P < 0.001 as calculated with Student’s t-test
