CC-1249 ac18 mt+

$30.00

Chlamydomonas Genetics Center, Duke University, 1981

Phenotype: requires acetate, cold sensitive

The original ac18 mutant was easy to score, but later isolates gave considerable growth on minimal medium. New isolates were made at Harvard in 1962 by subcloning, and at Duke in 1981 by outcrossing.

This strain is a product of the cross CC-597 ac18 (no longer in the collection) x CC-801 spr1, 1981

This mutant is difficult to score, but is included in the collection because there are relatively few other markers on linkage group V. Best results are obtained at cold temperature (15 degrees), where ac18 grows more slowly than wild type.
