Key Finding
Notably, ΔPeGαⅠ, ΔPeGβ, and ΔPeGγ mutants showed severe defects, with minimal disease symptoms in early infection stages and at least a 50% decrease in patulin production. These mutants displayed straight hyphal growth, reduced branching, and significantly decreased vitality.
Countstar Connection
Countstar (model not specified) measured cell numbers in the study's cell samples during quality assessment for the reported research.
