Fig. 3

Microscopic images of V. uliginosum roots colonized by C. ericae and Sordariomycetes sp. wild-type (a, bC. ericae; e, f Sordariomycetes sp.) and by C. ericae and Sordariomycetes sp. expressing GFP (c, dC. ericae; g, h Sordariomycetes sp.). a, c, e, g phase-contrast images; b, d, f, h fluorescent images. Fluorescent fungal coils are visible in the root cells colonized by C. ericae and Sordariomycetes sp. expressing GFP at 2 weeks (d, h). Weak autofluorescence was observed in the root sections of V. uliginosum (b, f). All of the bars are 100 μm
