Genes

Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group	Type
bd	Because dense bands of conidia are produced on appropriate solid medium at intervals of about 24 hr (1792, 1794), the mutant has been used extensively to study circadian rhythms (239, 560, 621, 1382, 1794). bd has no effect on the underlying clock mechanism, but allows the visible expression of rhythm (622). Grow rate is about 70% that of the wild type (232). Conidiation is enhanced, even on slants (232). CO2 inhibits conidiation and, thus, inhibits banding; bd is much less sensitive than wild type to this effect of CO2 (1792). Biotin starvation leads to a phenocopy in wild type and to increased persistence of banding in bd (2206). Originally identified in a bd; inv strain called "timex" (1791). bd alone is sufficient to cause banding (1794). Used to study conidiation under nonstarvation conditions (1820). Used in a study of morphological differentiation patterns such as concentric rings and radial zonations (528). Expression is affected by changing the concentrations of agar, sugar, and salts. Conidial scatter is eliminated in the double mutant bd; csp (239). Conveniently scored by conidial banding on agar in long tubes or large plates at 25oC in constant dark or in a dark-light cycle, but not in constant light (1791).	IVR	B
his-3	IR. Right of met-10 (R.L. Metzenberg, personal communication). Left of cog (1 to 3%) (172,174), ure-4 (1%) (78), and ad-3A (1%) (271). (434)Requires histidine (434). Complex gene coding for histidinol dehydrogenase, phosphoribosyladenosine 5'-triphosphate-pyrophosphohydrolase, and phosphoribosyl-adenosine 5'-monophosphate-cyclohydrolase (16, 673) (Fig. 14). All three activities appear to be catalyzed by a single protein (673). Strains carrying different individual alleles may lack only the early reaction(s) or only histidinol dehydrogenase, or both. Those that lack only histidinol dehydrogenase accumulate histidinol (16, 162, 1123). Mutants produce cross-reacting material (220). Used to study intralocus complementation and recombination (15, 16, 27, 162, 164, 171, 172, 1121, 1122, 1124). Intralocus recombination is regulated by cog and by rec-2 (27, 171); it is not affected by rec-1 (172). Translocation T(IR;VII)TM429, with one breakpoint in his-3, has been used to show that cog is cis-acting (171). Initial alleles: C140 and T1710 (= C1710).	IR	B
