Gene symbols inAspergillus nidulans

Abstract
SUMMARY: Proposals are made for symbols consisting of a primary gene symbol of lower case italic letters referring to the mutant phenotype (three letters for new symbols, old symbols unchanged), an italic capital locus specific letter (or a hyphen in mutants not yet tested for allelism) and an italic mutant number. Optional superscripts are recommended to convey additional information. Further proposals relate to symbols for chromosome aberrations and to strain numbers.
