Mutation and nuclear stage in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. II. Reverse mutations induced by x-rays in the absence of recombination

Mutat Res. 1975 Feb;27(2):235-40. doi: 10.1016/0027-5107(75)90082-2.

Abstract

Induction of mutations by X-rays in Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells in which sister-strand recombination appears to be excluded is offered as evidence against a requirement for recombination in radiation-induced mutagenesis.
