Effects of NO on the growth and development of Shiraia sp. S9 under the red light. A The morphologic characteristics of S9. The red arrow indicates pycnidium. SNP (5 μM), cPTIO (100 μM) and NS-2028 (20 μM) mixed with PDA medium were poured into a Petri dish and the plate was incubated at 28 ℃ for 8 days. The intensity of red light (627 nm) was 200 lx. B The number of spores and the length between mycelial branches of S9. C The relative expression levels of genes associated with sporulation. The culture was maintained in a 150 mL flask containing 50 mL medium at 28 ℃ and 150 r/min under the dark or red light treatment. Values are mean ± SD from three independent experiments (*p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 vs. control. #p < 0.05 vs. red light treatment, ten plates per replicate)
