Table 2 Media and treatment for growing G. clavigera mycelium for cDNA library construction

From: Gene discovery for the bark beetle-vectored fungal tree pathogen Grosmannia clavigera

Media

composition

wood

10 g/plate lodgepole pine sawdust

starch

0.17% YNB, 0.1% PHP, 0.3% asparagine, 1% starch

organic nitrogen

0.17% YNB, 0.1% PHP, 0.3% asparagine, 1% maltose

inorganic nitrogen

0.17% YNB, 0.1% PHP, 0.3% NaNO3, 1% maltose

olive oil

0.17% YNB, 0.1% PHP, 0.3% asparagine, 1% (v/v) olive oil emulsified in 0.5% tergitol (olive oil and tergitol were mixed and autoclaved separately before being added to the media)

LPPE treatment

Cultures were grown on organic nitrogen medium for 48 h and then sprayed with LPPE

  1. All media were solidified with 1.5% granulated agar. LPPE = lodgepole pine methanol extract, YNB = yeast nitrogen base, PHP = potassium hydrogen phthalate
