Effects of pyroquilon on colony colour of A. fumigatus grown on Czapek medium. The reference strain CBS 113.26 was grown on Czapek agar, supplemented (B) or not (A) with 20 μg/mL of pyroquilon. The colour of the colonies obtained in the presence of this inhibitor of the melanin biosynthesis pathway is similar to that of colonies of the brownish isolate IHEM 15998 grown on Czapek medium (C).
