Essential genes in the hDf6 region of chromosome I in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetics - 1 Nov 1990

Howell A M, Rose A M

Abstract excerpt

In this paper we describe the analysis of essential genes in the hDf6 region of chromosome I of Caenorhabditis elegans. Nineteen complementation groups have been identified which are required for the growth, survival or fertility of the organism (essential genes). Since ten of these genes were represented by more than one allele, a Poisson calculation predicts a minimum estimate of 25 essential genes in hDf6. The...
