Claim Text:
1. A filamentous fungus comprising a genetic modification in at least one hydrophobin gene, wherein said at least one hydrophobin gene encodes a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of: the amino acid sequence having the sequence set forth in SEQ ID #1, an amino acid sequence having at least 85% sequence identity to SEQ ID #1, the amino acid sequence having the sequence set forth in SEQ ID #7, an amino acid sequence having at least 85% sequence identity to SEQ ID #7, the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID #4 and an amino acid sequence having at least 85% sequence identity to SEQ ID #4, wherein said genetic modification reduces or abolishes the activity or expression of said hydrophobin, wherein said fungus is an wherein said fungus further comprises at least one transgene, and wherein said transgene is encoded by an expression vector adapted for expression of said transgene.
