Systematic Analysis of Zn2Cys6 Transcription Factors Required for Development and Pathogenicity by High-Throughput Gene Knockout in the Rice Blast Fungus
Figure 2
Analysis of Zn2Cys6 transcription factor mutant phenotypes in fungal development stages.
(A) Number of TFs showing multiple mutant phenotypes. (B) Number of mutants showing mutant phenotypes in each developmental stage. (C) Venn diagram showing the number of mutant phenotypes. The phenotypes included vegetative growth (conidial germination, colony growth, pigmentation and mycelial appearance), conidiation (asexual reproduction), appressorium formation and pathogenicity to rice and barley.
