Cold-sensitive Mutants of Neurospora crassa

Doris R Roberds 1, A Gib DeBusk 1
PMCID: PMC246361  PMID: 4269583

Abstract

Cold-sensitive mutants of the eucaryote Neurospora crassa have been isolated by a modification of the filtration-enrichment technique of Catcheside. The mutants include osmotic remedial, auxotrophic, transport, and incorporation deficient isolates.
