Effect of MoHOX2 deletion on conidiogenesis.

(A) Development of conidia on conidiophores. Light microscopic observation was performed on strains grown on V8 medium for 7 days. Bars = 100 µm. (B) Aerial structures stained with lactophenol aniline blue. Conidia and aerial hyphae stained blue, and conidiophores stained gray. Bars = 50 µm. (C) Scanned electron microscopic observation of aerial structures. Bars = 10 µm.
