Phenotype: requires acetate

This mutant came from a mutagenesis experiment by Gillham using 5-fluorodeoxyuridine treatment to generate chloroplast mutations. However, this isolate showed 2:2 inheritance in a cross to wild type, and all ac progeny were mt-, suggesting close linkage to the mating type locus.

This mutation acquires suppressors easily. All suppressors isolated thus far have been unlinked to the original mutation.
