Two wild-type strains of Coprinus lagopus isolated from a single basidiocarp differ by a factor of two in their basal level of alkaline phosphatase. The gene responsible for this difference is allelic to reg-2 and unlinked to the pho loci; the allele conferring a lower basal level is dominant both in diploids and dikaryons.
