Front cover: We found a spray of ume (Japanese apricot) with some pretty blossoms. To bring out the best appearance of the blossoms, we arranged it in front of a plate on which a budding yeast strain had been streaked. Since the strain had ade2 mutation and carried a plasmid containing ADE2 gene, a moderate number of colonies turned into deep pink color due to loss of the plasmid were scattered on the medium. What we found as a result was a perfect picture of ume blossoms illuminated from behind by the rising full moon. Designed by TRAIS Co., Ltd. (Kobe, Japan)
