Requirement of either of a pair of ras-related genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for spore viability

Nature. 1984 Jun;309(5968):523-7. doi: 10.1038/309523a0.

Abstract

Cells of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, containing disruptions of either of two genes that are members of the ras oncogene family are viable, but haploid yeast spores carrying disruptions of both genes fail to grow.
