Abstract
The genetical analysis, by protoplast fusion, of the sterile strain ED22 of S. pombe is described. Two major mutations are harbored by this strain: cdc 25.22, which is conditionally defective in mitosis; and, ste 1.1, which causes sterility in strains of h-, h+ or mat 2.102 mating-type. Sterility is due to the failure of cell agglutination. Mutations ste 1.1 is defective in the production of a nondiffusible and non-mating-type specific factor. Mutations ste 1 and cdc 25 both map on chromosome I and are loosely linked.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
