Abstract
IT has been shown in earlier work1,2 that the size of ascospore in Neurospora crassa is controlled by a polygenic system. In the course of experiments designed to give further information on this system, results were obtained which indicate that a part of the polygenic system is linked with the albino locus on chromosome I.
