From Victor Bruce, Princeton University, January 1981

Phenotype: antibiotic resistant (cycloheximide)

In sending this strain, Victor Bruce stated that it appeared to be a new cycloheximide resistant mutant, not allelic with either act1 or act2. Crosses by Elizabeth Harris and by Geraldine Fleming in the Boynton-Gillham laboratory suggested however that it is an act2 allele.
