Description
Figure 5 SEM observations of surface alteration and fungal colonization on natural rubber discs after fungal incubation. a1–a5. Rubber discs after 1 day of incubation; b1–b5. Rubber discs after 2 months of fungal incubation; c1–c5. Rubber discs after washing and drying prior to SEM analysis (red circles indicate sampled regions); d1–d5. SEM images of rubber disc surfaces; e1–e4. Fungal hyphae and mycelial networks observed on rubber surfaces (red arrows indicate fungal structures); f1–f4. Surface fissures and cracks observed on rubber discs after fungal incubation (red arrows indicate cracks); d5, e5, f5. Uninoculated control discs observed under SEM. Scale bars: 500 μm (d1–d5), 200 μm (e1, f4), 300 μm (e3, e5, f5), 100 μm (e2, e4, f1–f3).
