This study analyzes sourdough yeast strains to reveal their domestication history, showing genetic distinctiveness from commercial strains and complex evolutionary influences from human cultural practices.

This study examines how introgression affects recombination patterns in yeast by analyzing crossover and non-crossover rates in crosses with and without introgression.

This study examines how temperature affects meiotic success and recombination rates in two yeast species with different thermal tolerances, finding temperature-dependent differences in sporulation and recombination.

The paper investigates how genomic architecture influences the formation and fitness of adaptive copy number variants (CNVs) in yeast, finding that template switching during DNA replication is a common mechanism for CNV generation.

The paper identifies differences in genetic interaction profiles of regulatory kinases between proliferative and quiescent yeast cells under various nutrient conditions.

The paper identifies factors involved in accelerated mRNA degradation in yeast during a nitrogen upshift by combining genetic screening and molecular analysis.
