The A strains that were used in this lab were mutants that are unable to synthesize the amino acid leucine. Thus, these haploid yeast cells cannot grow on media that does not contain leucine. The alpha strains that were used in this lab were mutants that are unable to synthesize the amino acid methionine. Thus, these haploid yeast cells cannot grow on media that does not contain methionine. The plates we used in this lab were made with media that does not contain either leucine or methionine. Given this, would A haploid cells be able to grow on these leu(-), met(-) plates?
