Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group	Type
al-2	IR. Right of os-5 (<1%) and T(STL76). Left of arg-6(1%) and al-1 (797, 802, 808, 816, 818). Included in duplications from Tp(T54M94), confirming location left of arg-6(808). (482) Carotenoids absent or abnormal, but steroids produced (398). Blocked in microsomal fraction and defective in phytoene synthetase (445), a particulate enzyme (445 and references cited therein) (Fig. 9). Tracer experiments indicate a lesion between prephytoene pyrophosphate and phytoene (572). Alleles include those resulting in white and pale rose-white, e.g., 15300 and Y254MI65 (1042), and purple, e.g., MN58a (154). For complementation, see references 500 and 1041. Fine-structure mapping (500, 1042) needs reevaluation because of new information on the location of the arg-6 marker (797).	IR	B
fr	IL. Between ro-10 (18%) and un-5 (6%) (798, PB). (789)Delicate branching on agar surface and delicate aerial growth with no conidia (789). Multiple hyphal branching (382). Deficient in glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (as are col-2 and balmutants) (949, 952). Partially deficient in linolenic acid (115); morphology partially corrected by exogenous linolenic acid (892, 943). Low adenylate cyclase activity and low adenosine 3',5'-phosphate (943, 950). Used to determine what functions are controlled by adenosine 3',5'-phosphate (779). Unlike cr-1, fr is not corrected morphologically by exogenous cyclic nucleotides (892, 951). Scott (943) reported that morphology is corrected by theophylline; Rosenberg and Pall (892) reported no correction by phosphodiesterase inhibitors. Cell wall analysis; photograph (112, 278, 946). Reduced amount of cell wall peptides (1165). Recessive in duplications (808). Female sterile. Both known alleles (B110 and R2499) revert to fr+.	IL	B
nic-2	IR. Between ad-3B (4%) and ace-7 (4 to 7%) (271, 578). (482) Grows on nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, or high concentrations of quinolinic acid (97, 1168). Cannot use kynurenine, hydroxykynurenine, or hydroxyanthranilic acid (96, 1168). Accumulates 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (96) (Fig. 18). Aging cultures accumulate red-brown pigment in the medium. Used to study intralocus recombination (908). Translocations T(4540) and T(S1325)are inseparable from nic-2 (808, 908, 911).	IR	B
