N. crassa single mutants
Several categories of mutants (e.g. ad, his) have many representatives.
Rather than make one giant list of mutants, they are presented in the following groups:
All mutants not in a large group are listed together under "other single mutants"
See Perkins, D.D. et al. 1982. Microbiological Reviews 46:426-570 for a description
of most loci.
