  • Title: [Genetic analysis of polyauxotrophy and early mitotic progeny of Saccharomyces cerevisiae zygotes. II. Spore-forming segregants in the mitotic and meiotic progeny of polyauxotrophic clones].
    Author: Stolbova AV.
    Journal: Genetika; 1987 Aug; 23(8):1390-8. PubMed ID: 3311879.
    Abstract:
    This article continues the investigation of polyauxotrophic (PA) clones formed in early mitotic progeny of zygotes. Cloning and segregation analysis of PA progeny suggest an unusual state of diploid genome in these strains, which is expressed as elimination of the dominance effect of the wild allele and as suppression or conversion of either of two loci of mating type. In PA progeny, except for recombinant haploids, sporulating diploids and unstable clones were detected. The tetrad analysis of the diploids points to homozygotization for individual markers. Over-replication of diploid set of chromosomes, prior to meiosis, and replacement of the haploid nucleus (the product of meiosis) for the diploid nucleus may explain the appearance of sporulating segregants in the diploid meiotic progeny. Unstable segregants may be considered as heterokaryons with complex interaction of nuclei.
