From Steven Ball, Lille University of Science and Technology, June 1993, his B9

Phenotype: altered starch metabolism; requires acetate and p-aminobenzoic acid

The st3 mutants have increased amylose content, and have diminished glycogen-primed soluble starch synthase activity. Because of the ac14 and pab2 mutations, this strain requires acetate and para-amino-benzoic acid (for which yeast extract will suffice).
