Fig. 3

Confocal laser scanning microscopy images of A. nidulans reference and AA13 gene deletion strains grown on resistant potato starch. The analysis was performed on an agar minimal medium supplemented with granular starch for 20 h. a Starch with no fungal inoculum (control), b reference A. nidulans strain, cAnAA13B deletion strain, dAnAA13A deletion strain and e double AA13 gene deletion strain. The fungal hyphae are visualized by calcofluor white (CFW) staining (blue). The micrographs of the deletion strains are arranged based on the severity of the starch degradation phenotype, based on size and number of residual starch granules in the focal plane
