The tubC mutations permitted good conidiation of these strains in culture media containing benomyl and were responsible for increasing their benomyl resistance levels. This implies that β3-tubulin, a product of the tubC gene, in addition to being involved in fungal conidiation, participates in the vegetative growth of the fungus. The tubC gene was located in linkage group I.183-186engβ-tubulinAspergillus nidulansBenomyl resistanceConidiationtubC genebenomylfungicidetubulinaspergillus nidulansdrug resistancefungus growthfungus mutantnonhumanpriority journalAspergillusEmericella nidulansFungiArtigo10.1111/j.1574-6968.1994.tb07027.xAcesso restrito2-s2.0-0028229798
