pan-2	VIR. Right of rib-1 (<1 to 3%). Left of del (6%) and trp-2(11%) (140, 141, 143, 818, PB). Unable to convert ketovaline to ketopantoic acid (138, 140, 141). Used in major studies of intralocus recombination and complementation (140-143). pan-2ascospores remain white or pale if the crossing medium is not supplemented, even when the protoperithecial parent is pan-2+. Asci in which gene conversion has occurred at pan-2 can thus be recognized and isolated (1072, 1073); photographs (1072). For good recovery of pan-2progeny, crossing media should be supplemented with pantothenic acid (10 µg/ml) even when the protoperithecial parent is pan+. Called group B.	VIR	B
