Figure 6From: Insertional mutagenesis enables cleistothecial formation in a non-mating strain of Histoplasma capsulatumEffects of silencing HMK1 on cleistothecia formation. A: HMK1 RNA levels found in yeast phase of the silenced strain (UC1-HMK1-RNAi) compared to those found in the empty vector control strain by qRT-PCR. Values represent averages and standard error of triplicate samples. B: Number of cleistothecia counted from three pairings of UC1 + UH3, or UC1 with HMK1 silenced + UH3.Back to article page
