Abstract

The location of the damage responsible for radiation-induced lethal sectoring in diploid yeast was investigated in three strains of independent origin. The damage was attributable to mutations that were chromosomal, recessive, and nonallelic. Tetrad analysis implied that the mutations were tightly linked to centromeres or to each other.
