Figure 7

Combined overlay of the light microscopical analysis at 20× magnification and the cell permeabilization assay conducted on B. cinerea grown in the presence of Hc-AFPs for 48 h at 23°C. (A) Control, (B) Hc-AFP1 25 μg ml-1, (C and D) Hc-AFP2 15 μg ml-1, (E) Hc-AFP3 25 μg ml-1, (F) Hc-AFP4 18 μg ml-1. The yellow fluorescence indicates a compromised membrane and the black arrows indicate structures that are leaking their cellular content into the surrounding medium.
