Abstract

A method has been devised for isolating yeast ascospores and asci free from vegetative cell contamination. By careful manipulation of the size and surface properties of the spheroplasted vegetative cells and asci, a pure preparation of ascospores could be recovered by sucrose gradient centrifugation.
