From Ursula Goodenough, Harvard University, May 1978

Phenotype: requires acetate

Both ac40 and ac40a were UV-induced in Levine’s laboratory. Of the two, ac40 is easier to score. Wollman and Bennoun showed that ac40 has an altered chlorophyll-protein complex CP 0; apparently ac40a was not tested for this property.
