The WT strain was incubated for 7 days under the optimal regime of 25°C and L:D 12:12 on cellophane-overlaid SDAY (4% glucose, 1% peptone, and 1.5% agar plus 1% yeast extract) plates, which were spread with 100-μl aliquots of a 107-conidia ml−1 suspension for culture initiation. From the end of the 24-h incubation onward, total RNAs were separately extracted daily from three plate cultures using an RNAiso Plus reagent kit (TaKaRa, Dalian, China) and reverse transcribed into cDNAs using a PrimeScript reverse transcription (RT) reagent kit (TaKaRa). Each of the cDNA samples (standardized by dilution) was used as a template to assess transcript levels of brlA and abaA via real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) with paired primers (see Table S1 in the supplemental material) under the action of SYBR Premix Ex Taq (TaKaRa). The fungal 18S rRNA was used as an internal standard. The threshold cycle (2−ΔΔCT) method (45 (link)) was used to compute the relative transcript level of brlA or abaA in the WT strain on a given day with respect to the standard level at the end of the 24-h incubation.

Total RNA was prepared according to the methods of Ye et al.26 (link),27 . Total RNA was isolated from different tissues using a RNAiso Plus Reagent Kit (Takara Biotechnology, Dalian, China) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The purified RNA was dissolved in RNase-free water, with genomic DNA contamination removed using TURBO DNase I (Promega, Beijing, China). The integrity and purity of the total RNA were checked with a Nanodrop 2000C spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts) and Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, California). Only the total RNA samples with RIN value ≥ 8 were used for constructing the cDNA library in PacBio or HiSeq sequencing28 (link).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
