Abstract excerpt
The repeat induced point mutation (RIP) phenomenon has been used to generate new mutants of nmr, the negative nitrogen regulatory gene in Neurospora crassa. The wild-type nmr gene was cotransformed along with the hygromycin B resistance gene into wild-type cells by selecting for hygromycin B resistance. Following purification of primary transformants using microconidia, many chlorate-sensitive progeny were...
