Chlamydomonas Genetics Center, Duke University, 1997

Phenotype: wall deficient

From a series of four backcrosses of CC-125 wild type mt+ to obtain a better cw15 mt- isolate, beginning with CC-406.

This cell wall deficient strain swims and mates better than its parent CC-406. However, all cw15 cultures typically contain a high proportion of non-flagellated cells.
