Abstract excerpt
Zygotes isolated by micromanipulation from crosses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, one of which carries a kar mutation, give rise most frequently to cytoductant colonies showing the nuclear constitution of either one of the two haploid parental strains. In crosses of kar2-1 strains to wild-type, about 10% of the cytoductants of both mating types are homozygous autodiploids. There is evidence indicating that...
