Using allelism tests, two diuron (DIU1, DIU2), one funiculosin (FUN1), and two antimycin (ANA1, ANA2) resistance loci are resolved into two mitochondrial drug-resistant genetic loci. DIU1 is alelic to ANA2 and FUN1. DIU2 is allelic to ANA1.

β¦ Synopsis
Retention or loss of the two new mitochondrial antimycin A resistance loci AI and AII has been analyzed in a large number of stable cytoplasmic petite mutants. Using these deletion mutants it was possible to localize the two antimycin A resistance loci in the OI--OII region of mitochondrial DNA. The genetic loci are mapped in the following order: OII--AI--AII--cobl--OI. The mapping relationship of mutants resistant to antimycin A or funiculosin to various cob mutants is described.

Three antimycin resistant mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are characterized genetically. The mutations have been shown to be cytoplasmically inherited by four criteria. The phenotype persists in diploids formed by a cross with a pO strain of yeast of the opposite mating type. Diploids heterozygo
A group of 30 independent mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, resistant to the respiratory inhibitor antimycin A, was investigated from a genetical and biochemical point of view. All the mutants can be grouped into two nuclear loci: AMY1 maps on the VII chromosome, between leu 1 and trp 5; AMY2 is
Fifty eight mitochondrial mutants (p + mit- mutants), all deficient in cytochrome oxidase activity and previously assigned to the genetic region oxi3 on the mitochondrial DNA, were mapped by the method of "petite deletion mapping". This procedure resulted in the identification of at least twenty one
