Elizabeth Harris, Boynton-Gillham laboratory, Duke University, 1974

Phenotype: cold sensitive on minimal medium

The cr4 mutant is deficient in chloroplast ribosomes and accumulates 54S subunit particles. This strain was derived from a cross of the original cr4 mutant to a wild type strain equivalent to CC-124. When first tested this strain was easy to score as acetate requiring on minimal medium at 15-17 degrees, but it appears to have acquired a suppressor.
