  1. a, CaNa refers to diploid fusants having both the COX1 allele and other genetic markers originating from the MATa parent YZX2
  2. b, CαNα refers to a diploid fusant having both the HEG-containing introns in COX1 gene and other genetic markers originating from the MATα parent
  3. c, CαNa refers to diploid fusants having the HEG-containing introns in COX1 originating from the MATα parent but other genetic markers originating from the MATa parent YZX2
  4. d, CaNα refers to diploid fusants having the COX1 allele originating from the MATa parent but other genetic markers originating from the MATα parent
  5. e, CαNr refers to diploid fusants having the HEG-containing introns in COX1 originating from the MATα parent and recombinant mtDNA genotype with ND2 and ND5 alleles from the MATa parent and ND4 from the MATα parent
