Abstract
The production of a multi-marker strain given a series of strains each carrying a single marker will require a considerable investment in time and resources when based on a series of formal crosses. Such strains can be produced rapidly and with only minimal resources by recurrent cycles of random mating and selection, with selection based on the number of desired alleles carried.
