... Many mutations in Neurospora crassa are only known by a morphological or other visible phenotype. For many of these, the actual open reading frame responsible remains unknown. Among these are several temperature-sensitive lethal mutations known as unknown (Inoue and Ishikawa, 1970; Ishikawa and Perk ...
