Yielder
Definition:
(n.) One who yields.
Example Sentences:
(1) Although all of the mKS-U lines contained the SV40-specific tumor antigen, some were poor virus yielders (SV40 was recovered in less than 50% of the trials) and five lines were rare virus yielders (SV40 recovered only once in four or more trials).
(2) Further studies of the viral properties of non-yielder HeLa cell populations were made with a clone obtained from one of these sublines by plating under antibody.
(3) The frequency of induction was about 7 x 10(-2) for TSV-5 cells, about 3 x 10(-3) for mKS-BU100 cells, greater than 10(-4) for the mKS-U lines which were "good" yielders, and about 10(-5) to 10(-4) for the mKS-U lines which were "average" yielders.
(4) Cold-sensitive restriction of Pseudomonas phage CB3 by Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAT2 involves some aspect of CB3 specific RNA synthesis at 20 C. Experiments using chloramphenicol treatment and RNA-DNA hybridization establish that the amount of CB3 RNA present at 20 C is consistent with the known percentage of phage yielder cells at 20 C. Thus, it appears that nonyielder cells of PAT2 synthesize little or no phage-specific mRNA.

The SV40 strains studied included strains rescued from transformed cell lines classified as "good," "average," "poor," and "rare" yielders on the basis of total virus yield, frequency of induction, and incidence of successful rescue trials.
(9) The mKS-U lines which were poor virus yielders, rare yielders, or which never yielded virus have been classified tentatively as "defective lysogens" which contain mutational lesions at loci essential for detachment of SV40 from integration sites or for SV40 replication, or for both.

(16) Special or predetermined yielders occurred only among the earliest yielders.
(17) Virus strains rescued from all classes of transformed cells were capable of inducing the transplantation antigen, and they induced the intranuclear SV40-T-antigen, thymidine kinase, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase, and cellular DNA synthesis at 37 C and at 41 C. With the exception of four small plaque strains rescued from "poor" yielders, the rescued SV40 strains replicated their DNA and formed infectious virus with kinetics similar to parental SV40 at either 37 or 41 C. The four exceptional strains did replicate at 37 C, but replication was very poor at 41 C. Thus, only a few of the rescued virus strains exhibited defective SV40 functions in CV-1 cells.
