Abstract excerpt

The accumulation of Ade+ revertants during adenine starvation and Trp+ revertants during tryptophan starvation in haploid polyauxotrophic strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae occurs in a time-dependent manner. Accumulation of revertants is enhanced in Rad6- strains, suggesting that starvation-indu...
