A versatile microfluidic platform measures hyphal interactions between Fusarium graminearum and Clonostachys rosea in real-time.

Routinely, fungal-fungal interactions (FFI) are studied on agar surfaces. However, this format restricts high-resolution dynamic imaging. To gain experimental access to FFI at the hyphal level in real-time, we developed a microfluidic platform, a FFI device.
