Neurospora crassa and Other Neurospora species

Search the FGSC Strain Database

The pdf version of the FGSC catalog has recent strain listings.
Cloned genes and gene libraries
Including libraries from the genome projects

The following links take you to pages from the 11th edition of the FGSC catalog.

Single mutants
Multiple mutants
Mitochondrial mutants
Mapped chromosome aberrations
Reciprocal and insertional translocations, and Inversions
Special purpose strains
Heterokaryon testers, Spore-killers and more
Wild type strains
Wild strains of N. crassa, other Neurospora species, and other fungi in the FGSC collection.
The old strain listings are still online here
Neurospora Functional  Genomics Project Strains

A pre-formatted search for knockout strains at the FGSC (or search here)

An Exel file with the completed KOs and their FGSC numbers is available from the Dartmouth site

Completed knockouts are described at the Dartmouth web-site with a complete cross referencing list. 

Some mutant phenotypes are online here.

KO Mutants with gene symbols in the FGSC database

More KOs with gene symbol (11/07)        

NEW cDNA libraries are available from the FGSC

Arrayed mutants are now available.
We have arrayed ko mutants into 96-well plates. They are available as glycerol stocks, shipped frozen in dry ice.  We are asking $100 per plate plus shipping with a cap of $3000 for people who want the entire set. Please do not order a single plate to avoid the cost of ordering more than 5 individual mutants.

The Knockout kit can be viewed here for people who want to make their own KOs

MicroArray slides from the Neurospora Genome Project are available from the FGSC.  The slides are described online here
