DCFH-DA fluorescence staining was used to detect the level of ROS in mycelia. The treated mycelia were incubated in the dark for 30 min with DCFH-DA (final concentration, 10 μM). After washing with PBS buffer, the mycelia were observed using laser confocal microscopy (488 nm [excitation wavelength] and 525 nm [emission wavelength]) to measure ROS levels (72 (link)). Assay kits (BC3595, BC0175, BC0205, and BC0025; Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd.) were utilized to measure H2O2 content, SOD activity, and MDA content, respectively, in treated mycelia.
