ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF TEMPERATURE SENSITIVE SPORULATIONLESS MUTANTS OF THE BASIDIOMYCETESCHIZOPHYLLUM COMMUNE

Abstract
A technique is described for the isolation of temperature sensitive sporulationless mutants from S. commune Fries. Three mutants were isolated and characterized. Mutant spo is stopped during meiosis and mutant stg produces abnormal sterigmata. Mutant ts shows no development at any stage at the restrictive temperature (30.degree. C).
