Ethidium bromide is known to be a powerful mutagen for the induction of eytoplasmically inherited petite mutations in yeast. The effect of ethidium bromide on the degree of suppressiveness of the induced mutants as a function of exposure time is described. The mitoehondrial DNA of 20 ethidium bromid

We have reinvestigated the linkage orientation of repeating units in mtDNAs of yeast p-petite mutants containing an inverted duplication. All five petite mtDNAs studied contain a continuous segment of wild-type mONA, part of which is duplicated and present in inverted form in the repeat. We show by

Mutations in two genes (cdc8 and cdc21) required for nuclear and mitochondrial DNA synthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae result in a 6- to 11-fold increase in the rate of mitotic segregation of petites at the permissive temperature.

Work in recent years has produced indirect evidence to support the view that the phenomenon of suppressiveness in yeast is the result of the ability of the petite mtDNA to out-replicate the wild-type genome. We have developed a method, based on fluorography of gels containing restriction fragments o
