From Ruth Galloway, Goodenough lab, Washington University, February 1983

Phenotype: herbicide resistant (DCMU)

This is an easily scored mutation in the psbA gene, conferring resistance to DCMU. The mutation changes Val to Ile at amino acid 219 in the D1 protein. CC-1403 is the same mutation in mt+.
