THE GENETIC CONTROL OF SPORULATION IN SACCHAROMYCES I. THE ISOLATION OF TEMPERATURE-SENSITIVE SPORULATION-DEFICIENT MUTANTS

Abstract

RESENT knowledge of the biochemical, cytological, and genetic events which 'accompany meiosis does not provide precise information regarding the nature and number of indispensable functions which must proceed for meiosis to occur. Such information could be obtained if conditional mutants preventing these functions were available for study.
