Growth phenotype of myosin deletants.

Abstract

<p>Incubation was for three days at 37°C on YAG medium supplemented with riboflavin. While both <i>myoB</i> and <i>myoE</i> deletants are viable, the <i>myoB</i> deletant colony is thin and wispy. Microscopic examination revealed that individual hyphae extend beyond the apparent edge of the colony. The <i>myoE</i> deletant is compact, exhibiting slower radial growth than the control strain.</p
