nitrate nonutilizer-8

locus: nit-8

locus_name: nitrate nonutilizer-8

organism_type: B

chromosome_number: I

chromosome_side: R

link_group: IR

cultural_requirements: IR. Linked to nit-1 (32%) (1080). Right of mt (10 to 15%) (D.D. Perkins, unpublished data). Cannot use nitrate or hypoxanthine as a nitrogen source. Lacks the molybdenum cofactor for nitrate reductase and xanthine dehydrogenase (1080, 1081) (Fig. 19 and 24).
