Abstract excerpt
Characterization of the Neurospora crassa mus-25 mutant suggests that it is defective in recombination repair and belongs to the uvs-6 epistasis group. It shows a high sensitivity to the alkylating agents methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), but not to UV radiation. It is barren (i.e. does not produce ascospores) in homozygous crosses. The frequency of MMS-induced...
