Some Experiments with Respiratory Deficient Mutants of Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)

Freeland, P. W.

Journal of Biological Education, 12, 1, 39-45, Mar 78

Methods are described for the induction and identification of respiratory deficient mutants in yeast. Practical schemes are given to enable students to obtain dose-response information for physical and chemical mutagens such as heat, ultraviolet light, or acriflavine. A simple test for environmental mutagens is described. (Author/MA)
