Transcriptional Reprogramming Drives Cold Adaptation During Long-Term Starvation in S. eubayanus

Luis Alberto Saona, Tamara Mateluna-Cáceres, Pablo David Villarreal…·Francisco A. Cubillos

This study shows that S. eubayanus adapts to long-term cold starvation through transcriptional reprogramming, not genetic mutations, leading to improved cryotolerance and growth.
