Karen VanWinkle-Swift, Boynton-Gillham laboratory, Duke University
Phenotype: antibiotic resistant (erythromycin)
Isolated by Karen VanWinkle-Swift. This is her original isolate.
This is a good chloroplast marker for erythromycin resistance, and has been used in many crosses. It maps to the center of the 23S rRNA gene, proximal to the intron, and is a G -> A base change in the 23S rRNA at the position equivalent to E. coli 2057.Harris et al. (1989) Genetics 123, 281-292
