This strain was obtained by David Grant from Uwe G. Schlösser, Sammlung von Algenkulturen (SAG), while David was at the University of Chicago, and was brought to Duke University by him. It was originally accessioned by SAG as “Lewin Caroline Islands strain” but its chloroplast DNA is indistinguishable from that of the standard laboratory strain of C. reinhardtii. Ferris reported that its distribution of the Gulliver transposon is also consistent with its being an isolate of the standard strain.
Christoph Beck reported this strain did not mate with his 137c or CC-1373 11/86, whereas our tests showed good mating with CC-125.
