Morphological and molecular identification of the potent Taxol producing fungus. A Plate culture of A. niger on PDA medium after 6 days. B Conidial heads of A. niger with an oval shape, and biserriate strigma at 1000 × magnification. C PCR amplicon of the ITS region of A. niger. D PCR amplicon of bapt gene as Taxol rate-limiting gene of Taxol biosynthesis. E Phylogenetic relatedness of the ITS region of A. niger by the maximum neighbor-joining (NJ) model by the MEGA X software. F The phylogenetic relatedness of the sequence of putative protein sequence of the BAPT retrieved from translation of the bapt gene by the maximum neighbor-joining (NJ) model by the MEGA X. The DNA ladder was 1 kb (Nex-gene Ladder, Puregene, Cat.# PG010-55DI)
