Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group	Type
eas	IIR. Linked to rip-1 (1/151), trp-3 (0/71), and fl (1/52) (PB). (967)Conidia and aerial hyphae are readily wetted by water; in contrast, those of wild type are hydrophobic. Resembles csp mutants in that conidia do not readily become airborne, but differs from csp mutants in that conidia do not remain joined in the proconidial chains (967). Rodlets are lacking from the surface of conidia (75). Conidiating cultures can be scored by adding a drop of water to the culture, by tapping an inverted slant (967), or by transferring conidia to liquid (PB). Not scorable in combination with fl. Somewhat sensitive to high osmotic pressure (PB). A class of slow-growing progeny is produced from crosses heterozygous or homozygous for eas(811).	IIR	B
ylo-1	VIL. Between cys-1 (8%) and ad-1 (6%). Probably right of Bml (2%) (1012, PB). (381). Yellow carotenoids (381). Affects synthesis of neurosporaxanthin (4'-apo-beta'-caroten-4'-oic acid); citations in reference 398. Lesion probably involves the conversion of lycopene to 3,4-dehydrolycopene or the conversion of either torulene or gamma-carotene to neurosporaxanthin (398 and references therein) (Fig. 9). Resembles the orange wild type in young cultures, but color differences become clear with age. Expressed in both conidia and mycelia. Undefined modifiers affect intensity. Fails to complement with many of the al-1 and al-2 albino strains (R.E. Subden, personal communication).	VIL	B
