Fig. 1. Representation of chromosome V incorporating genetic footprinting data. Each box is colored to summarize the results obtained to date from genetic footprinting. Mutant phenotypes: Q1, all selections, <75% population growth rate; Q2, all selections, 75 to 85% population growth rate; Q3, all selections, 85 to <100% population growth rate. Genes in which mutations gave distinctive phenotypes under specific selections are colored according to the selection(s) affected, as follows: M: (dark green),: minimal medium;. L (teal),: lactate medium;. H (orange),: high temperature;. C (brown),: caffeine;. S (yellow),: high salt;. X (light green),: mating;. WT (dark blue),: wild-type for all selections;. NR (grey)
