Abstract excerpt
Several mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae showing poor growth in the presence of elevated concentrations of NaCl were isolated to identify genes involved in the osmo-stress response. One of these mutants (WAY.5-4A-11; osr11) which showed a clear 2:2 segregation of the salt-stress phenotype upon tetrad analysis when crossed to a wild-type strain has been characterised. The mutation responsible for poor growth...
