Phenotypic analyses of ∆TpRfx1, CTpRfx1 and ∆TpKu70. a Quantitative analysis of conidiation on plates containing PDA or WA incubated at 28 °C for 8 days. **P < 0.01 between ∆TpRfx1 and ∆TpKu70 by Student t test. b Microscopic investigation of mycelial sporulation on plates containing PDA or WA. Fungal strains were cultivated at 28 °C for 80 h. c, d Growth curves of ∆TpRfx1 and ∆TpKu70 in medium containing glucose and SCS as the sole carbon source, respectively. In a, c, d, independent experiments were performed in triplicate
