title: [Genetic classification of riboflavin-dependent mutants of Pichia guilliermondii yeasts].
abstract: 114 riboflavinless mutants were selected from the genetic line of Pichia guilliermondii yeast. By means of accumulation test the mutants were divided into five biochemical groups. In genetic experiments seven complementation classes were found among 106 mutants. The strains of the I biochemical group, accumulating no specific products, corresponded to complementation class rib1; II group, accumulating 2,4,5-triaminopyrimidine - to the class rib2; III group, accumulating 2,6-dihydroxy-4-ribitylaminopyrimidine - to the class rib3; the mutants of the IV group, accumulating 2,6-dihydroxy-5-amino-4-ribitylaminopyrimidine, were divided into three complementation classes rib4, rib5 and rib6; the mutants of the V group, acculumating 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine, corresponded to the class rib7. Two mutants of the IV biochemical group within complementation classes rib4 and rib5 were detected could not grow in the medium with diacetyl without riboflavin. Intragenic complementation was found within classes rib6 and rib7. No linkage between mutations of different complementation classes was detected.
