UvAtg8 plays important roles in the fungal growth. a, Radial growth of ∆Uvatg8 was reduced. Colonies of the WT, ∆Uvatg8, and ∆Uvatg8-C strains were grown on the PSA、SD and SD-N medium in dark for 15 d and then imaged. b, Statistical analysis of colonies diameters of test strains on the PSA, SD and SD-N plates. c, Statistical analysis of inhibition rate of test strains under nitrogen starvation condition by comparing the fungal growth on the SD-N and SD medium. Three independent biological experiments were performed with three replicates each time. The data were subjected to Duncan’s Test and the significant differences were shown in the figure with asterisks (*, p < 0.01; **, p < 0.005; ***, p < 0.001)
