Genotypect350 II.
DescriptionMaintain at 15C. Temperature sensitive embryonic lethal. Sterile at 25C. Congenic strain, N2 and Bergerac BE. This allele should NOT be assumed to define a gene to which someone gave the name zyg-12. This name should not be used unless someone finds a non-complementing Bristol mutation. There is no evidence at present that the ts results from a single gene defect. Has been backcrossed >6 times to Bristol strains and should only contain Bergerac DNA in the unc-85 to dpy-10 region.
