From Martin Spalding, Iowa State University, June 2017

This starchless mutant arose from a TALEN targeted mutagenesis experiment using 21gr (CC-1690). The mutation in the STA6 gene is a single base deletion at the intron 3/exon 4 border yielding the following sequence: GATGCAGaCGGTGCT where the lowercase ‘a’ is the deleted base. To obtain a minus mating type, the initial mutant was crossed to CC-1691. A starchless mt- progeny lacking the TALEN transgene was subsequently backcrossed to 21gr (CC-1690) thirteen times. This strain is a mt+ progeny from the final cross.
