X-ray-induced specific-locus mutations in the ad-3 region of two-component heterokaryons of Neurospora crassa. V. Irreparable mutants of genotype ad-3A ad-3B, ad-3A ad-3B nic-2, and ad-3B nic-2 result from multilocus deletion and an unexpectedly high frequency of multiple-locus mutations.

Abstract excerpt
More extensive complementation tests than those performed initially (Webber and de Serres, 1965) on a series of 832 X-ray-induced specific-locus mutations in the adenine-3 (ad-3) region of a two-component heterokaryon (H-12) of Neurospora crassa (de Serres, 1989a) showed that unexpectedly high frequencies of specific-locus mutations in the ad-3 region have additional, but separate, sites of recessive lethal...
