Effects of targeted gene knockout in appressorium-like structure differentiation. a Percentages of germ tubes differentiating swollen tips. Values represent appressorium appearance probabilities with 95% confidence interval. b Microscopic observations of the infection structures on B. oleracea leaf surfaces. Leaf fragments inoculated with A. brassicicola wild-type strain or MCC/eisosome mutants were collected at 24 h dpi and directly imaged with an environmental scanning electron microscope in their natural state without modification or preparation. Appressoria-like structures are indicated by arrows. Scale bars = 10 μm
