Mycelial morphologies of wild type and Δgul-1 mutant during submerged cultivation. Conidia from the wild type (WT) and gul-1 mutant (Δgul-1) were separately inoculated into Avicel medium and batch cultured for 7 days, and the viscosities of the broths were measured at 24 h intervals. The Δgul-1 mutant grew in pellet form, whereas the wild type exhibited a clump type morphology. Blue line indicates WT; Red line indicates the Δgul-1 mutant. Scale bar is 200 μm. Values represent the means of at least three replicates, error bars show standard deviation
