A reproductive hierarchy controls mating fates among sibling yeast gametes

The paper quantifies mating strategies in yeast gametes, revealing a reproductive hierarchy where sibling gametes have divergent mating trajectories and temporal heterogeneity shapes compatibility.

The adaptive molecular landscape of reprogrammed telomeric sequences

This study reprograms yeast telomeres to human-like sequences and identifies adaptive mutations that allow survival and fitness recovery.

The modifiers that cause changes in gene essentiality

The paper identifies suppressor variants that alter gene essentiality across yeast strains, revealing context-dependent genetic mechanisms.

Optogenetic control of a horizontally acquired region in yeast prevent stuck fermentations

This study uses optogenetics to show that region A genes in wine yeast are essential for completing fermentation under low nitrogen conditions.

Accurate tracking of the mutational landscape of diploid hybrid genomes

The paper introduces MuLoYDH, a method to accurately track mutations in yeast diploid hybrids, revealing genetic background effects and loss-of-heterozygosity patterns.
