You will need to generate dropout plates to phenotype spore
You will need to generate dropout plates to phenotype spore colonies for each potential auxotrophy for the HOM3, TRP2, and ADE2 genes. Use the information in Table 2 to calculate the amount of supplements needed to make each dropout plate.

Calculation:
*Stock concentration (L-Threonine)
=4000 mg/100ml =40 mg/ml =1x concentration
*for 200x concentration = 200 x 40 = 8000mg/ml
*Stock concentration (L-Methionine)
=1000 mg/100ml =10 mg/ml =1x concentration
*for 500x concentration = 500 x 10 = 5000mg/ml
*Stock concentration (L-Tryptophan)
=1000 mg/100ml =10 mg/ml =1x concentration
*for 500x concentration = 500 x 10 = 5000mg/ml
*Stock concentration (Adenine)
=500 mg/100ml =5 mg/ml =1x concentration
*for 200x concentration = 200 x 5 = 1000mg/ml
