Abstract excerpt
For the genetic dissection of sexual sporulation in Aspergillus nidulans, we started a collection of ascosporeless mutants. After mutagenization of conidiospores with high doses of UV, we isolated 20 mutants with defects in ascospore formation. We crossed these mutants in two successive rounds with the wild-type strain. Eighteen of the 20 isolated mutants produced progeny with the original mutant phenotype in...
