I have observed asci resulting from a wild-type-by-suppressor cross in S.
pombe which contain anywhere from 4-7 spores. I have never observed this
before and I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience with
such abnormal asci. I am interested in finding out what might cause it
to happen, or what phenomenon of which it might be a result.
Thank you in advance for any help in this matter.
