Not your ordinary yeast: non-Saccharomyces yeasts in wine production uncovered
Saccharomyces cerevisiae and grape juice are 'natural companions' and make a happy
wine marriage. However, this relationship can be enriched by allowing 'wild'non …

A phylum-level phylogenetic classification of zygomycete fungi based on genome-scale data
Zygomycete fungi were classified as a single phylum, Zygomycota, based on sexual
reproduction by zygospores, frequent asexual reproduction by sporangia, absence of …

Transient structural variations have strong effects on quantitative traits and reproductive isolation in fission yeast
Large structural variations (SVs) within genomes are more challenging to identify than
smaller genetic variants but may substantially contribute to phenotypic diversity and …

Creating a functional single-chromosome yeast
Eukaryotic genomes are generally organized in multiple chromosomes. Here we have
created a functional single-chromosome yeast from a Saccharomyces cerevisiae haploid …

[HTML][HTML] Quantitative analysis of fission yeast transcriptomes and proteomes in proliferating and quiescent cells
Data on absolute molecule numbers will empower the modeling, understanding, and
comparison of cellular functions and biological systems. We quantified transcriptomes and …

Improving industrial yeast strains: exploiting natural and artificial diversity
Yeasts have been used for thousands of years to make fermented foods and beverages,
such as beer, wine, sake, and bread. However, the choice for a particular yeast strain or …
