Figure 1
The top, labeled wild-type (WT), shows the normal regularly spaced distribution of nuclei along the mycelium of the filamentous fungus, Neurospora crassa (stained with the DNA-specific stain, DAPI). The bottom picture illustrates the effect of deleting the ro-10 (ropy) nuclear migration gene of N. crassa on nuclear distribution. Bar, 10 μm. The pictures are from Minke et al., 1999b (Figure 4, B and F).
