Relative material strength measured in a high-shear mixer. (A) Average size (n = 4) of fungal elements versus time in the high-shear mixer for material from the control (●) and ΔmpkA (○) mutant. Lines indicate exponential fit used to determine specific fragmentation rate. (B) Average size of fungal elements for the control and ΔmpkA mycelial material after 5s of high-shear mixing are significantly different (P = 0.02). (C) Fragmentation rate, determined from exponential fits in A, are not significantly different (P = 0.96)
