Translocation T(III–VIII) in Aspergillus nidulans has been analysed by the detection of meiotic linkage between markers previously located separately on linkage groups III and VIII. The breakage points have been mapped by the detection of linkage between the crinkled type and genetic markers in the region of the break. A segment from linkage group III, approximately 43 units long and including the markers moC96, sC12, sA1 and cnxH3, has been translocated into linkage group VIII. The breakage point is between su6proA and moC96 and the attachment point is close to cha in linkage group VIII. It seems probable that the segment has been inserted into linkage group VIII.
