lethal ascospore-1

locus: le-1

locus_name: lethal ascospore-1

organism_type: B

chromosome_number: IV

chromosome_side: R

link_group: IVR

cultural_requirements: IVR. Linked to pan-1 (1 to 2%) (382). Right of cot-1 (14%) (713, 716).Autonomous ascospore lethal with colonial growth. Ascospores are black but mostly fail to germinate. A few do so after special treatment (382). Aconidial colonial growth with dense granular aerial mycelium, turning brown with age (713, 716). Photographs (382, 716). Reduced amount of cell wall peptides (1165). Alleles B55 and S4355 of reference 382 were presumed to be allelic with similar mutations called col-le-1(CM3) and (col-le-2) by (713, 716), but direct tests were not made.
