vivid

locus: vvd

locus_name: vivid

organism_type: B

chromosome_number: VI

chromosome_side: L

link_group: VIL

cultural_requirements: VIL. Between T(IBj5)L, ylo-1 and T(IBj5)R, cpc-1 (817, 1578, 1589). Not in a cosmid containing ylo-1 and lys-5 (1815). Intense color. The level and speed of synthesis of carotenoids is elevated in al^+ ylo^+ strains, in the ylo-1 mutant, and in strains with pigmenting mutant alleles of the albino genes. Mutant vvd alleles have been obtained independently in three labs. Expression of con-6 and con-10 in the light is increased when the vvd mutation is present. Intense color. The level and speed of synthesis of carotenoids is elevated in al+ ylo+ strains, in the ylo-1 mutant, and in strains with pigmenting mutant alleles of the albino genes. Mutant vvd alleles have been obtained independently in three laboratories (573, 818-820, 1589). Expression of con-6 and con-10 in the light is increased when the vvd mutation is present (573).
