A genetic interaction network containing 1000 genes and 4000interactions was mapped by crossing mutations in 132 differentquery genes into a set of 4700 viable gene yeast deletion mutantsand scoring the double mutant progeny for fitness defects. Networkconnectivity was predictive of function because interactionsoften occurred among functionally related genes, and similarpatterns of interactions tended to identify components of thesame pathway. The genetic network exhibited dense local neighborhoods;therefore, the position of a gene on a partially mapped networkis predictive of other genetic interactions. Because digenicinteractions are common in yeast, similar networks may underliethe complex genetics associated with inherited phenotypes inother organisms.
