 Steele & Jinks-Robertson found that LYS prototrophs due to interchromosomal recombination events also continue to arise in nondividing cells, but in this case, the production of recombinants continued whether there was selection for them or not.Thus, mutation occurred in stationary phase only when it was adaptive, but recombination occurred whether it was adaptive or not.Delayed appearance of mutants has also been reported for "Candida albicans."
