Question
In a diploid unicellular eukaryotic organism osmotic mutants prevent cells from growing on media with high levels of salt. The results shown in the table were obtained by crossing the mutants indicated. A +in the table indicates wild type phenotype in the progeny, a - in the table indicates that the crossing produced a mutant organism.
b. Which mutants correspond to which complementation group?
