Abstract
The survival of mutant and wild type macroconidia of Neurospora was compared after the conida, in the "air dry" state, had been frozen rapidly to −196 °C in liquid nitrogen and thawed rapidly. The 16 isolates of Neurospora were compared after 3 months' storage in liquid nitrogen with 7-day-old control cultures. Eleven of the 16 isolates showed no significant difference from 7-day-old controls in the pattern of germination after 8 hours' incubation. In the remainder, those spores germinating did so at a rate comparable to that of the controls, but the final proportion germinating was 5.0–19.0% lower.
