Figure 8From: Hydrophobins are required for conidial hydrophobicity and plant root colonization in the fungal biocontrol agent Clonostachys rosea A. thaliana root colonization by C. rosea strains. A. thaliana roots were detached 5 days post inoculation and washed. After sterilization in 2% NaOCl for 1 min, the roots were homogenized in water and serial dilutions were plated on PDA plates under sterile condition at 25°C. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) based on the Tukey-Kramer test.Back to article page
