From Ursula Goodenough, Harvard University, May 1978

Isolated by Eversole, originally his #60

Like CC-522 ac12 mt+, this strain has been well-behaved in crosses, with the acetate requirement easy to score and giving mostly complete tetrads. The basis for the acetate requirement hasn’t been determined, so this is primarily useful so far as a mapping marker.
