Abstract excerpt
The variation in cell mass production within cultured populations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae derived from untreated cells and from cells treated with 8-methoxypsoralen plus near-UV light (8MOP-NUV) was determined. Spontaneous mutation was not significant source of variation, since no genetic component of variance was detected in the untreated population. Following mutagenesis significant levels of genetic...
