The experiments to be described in this thesis were undertaken to obtain stocks of the fungus Aspergillus nidulans containing translocations between various pairs of linkage groups. The translocations were identified genetically, in gamma-irradiated diploid colonies. The chromosomes in this fungus are very small, but some can be identified individually (Elliott, 1960). The stocks characterized here will be used later in an attempt to associate each chromosome with the appropriate linkage group. The method used located not only translocations, but recessive lethals and some point mutants as well.
