ABSTRACT |
 |
|
| To better understand the function of phnA encoding a Phosducin-like protein in Aspergillus nidulans, we made the phnA deletion mutant. Compared with wild type, the deletion of phnA resulted in increase in the diameter and total volume of cleistothecia as well as increase in the number of ascospore even though it did not affect to the number of hülle cell. From these results, we suggest that PhnA did not affect the number. |
