Abstract excerpt
A UV-sensitive mutant has been isolated from UV-mutagenized conidia of Neurospora crassa. The mutation responsible for the lesion was mapped in linkage group VL, proximal to the nucleolus organizer region. We designated the mutant mus-18. The sensitivity of the mus-18 mutant to UV-irradiation was not particularly high, being less than twice that of the wild-type strain. However, the frequency of mutations at the...
