Abstract
The genetic map of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has been revised in the distal region of chromosome arm IIR. The spo4 locus, hitherto considered the outermost marker, has been moved to an intermediate position. As a result, and in accordance with recent physical mapping data, the order of the entire distal subgroup of some 12 genetic markers is reversed relative to previously published gene maps.
