This paper introduces a membrane-free spot-plating protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of diverse yeasts, improving efficiency and reducing costs.

This study evaluates a genome language model's ability to predict the effects of sequence changes in phages using experimental data, finding mixed success in distinguishing functional from nonfunctional mutations.

This paper refactors the Agrobacterium tumor-inducing plasmid into a minimal set of genes for plant and fungal transformation, demonstrating a bottom-up engineering approach.

This study shows that binary vector origin of replication family, not copy number, determines Agrobacterium-mediated transformation outcomes across plants and fungi.

This study identifies an efficient pathway for D-galacturonic acid metabolism in Rhodosporidium toruloides, demonstrating its potential for pectin-rich waste conversion.

The paper develops a high-throughput genetics method for Rhodosporidium toruloides, identifies essential genes, and reveals key processes in lipid metabolism.
