From Peter Luykx, University of Miami, January 2004, his PL40

Phenotype: deficient in osmoregulation

This is an osmoregulatory mutant that grows best on TAP medium supplemented with .06 M sucrose, sorbitol or lactose. It may grow somewhat more slowly than wild type. This strain was obtained in 1995 by UV mutagenesis of CC-125 wild type mt+, and was backcrossed to wild type several times.
