Abstract

After cultures from the progeny ascospores of a genetic cross containing nutritional markers are obtained, it is often necessary to test them on a variety of media. Testing using individual culture tubes may be ideal, but is time consuming. In contrast, inoculation of plates with conidial suspensions is relatively quick.
