Mutagenesis in yeast-misreplication or misrepair?
Evidence from the phenotype of mutants which partially block mutagenesis and from experiments made to time induced mutagenesis relative to cell division in yeast is used to question whether mutagenesis in yeast should be regarded as an error-prone repair phenomenon.
