This study investigates the role of a horizontally acquired genomic region in yeast adaptation by analyzing its molecular and phenotypic effects across different genetic backgrounds.

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

The paper investigates how clonal heterogeneity and genetic variation influence antimicrobial resistance in yeast, showing that both pre-existing and de novo mutations contribute to fitness and adaptation.

This paper introduces Phased Outbred Lines (POLs) to decompose trait variation in diploid organisms, achieving high heritability and precise estimation of genetic components in yeast.
