This study identifies genomic regions in Saccharomyces hybrids that contribute to thermotolerance by analyzing chromosome elimination and CRISPR-Cas9-induced loss of heterozygosity.

The paper identifies Nvj1 orthologs across diverse yeast lineages and shows functional divergence in NVJ formation and sequence motifs.

The paper examines yeast species in vineyards and non-vineyard environments, finding that S. cerevisiae shows higher resistance to vineyard antimicrobials compared to other species.

This study shows that both structural changes and cellular environments contribute to differences in protein thermostability between two yeast species.

This study analyzes mutations induced by sodium azide in barley, finding specific patterns of SNVs and indels that differ from natural variation.

This study compares mutational effects in two yeast species to explain differences in adaptation to winemaking stressors, finding similar mutational distributions but distinct adaptive paths.

This paper shows that mutations in ribosomal protein genes suppress temperature sensitivity in S. pombe tRNA modification mutants by reducing ribosome concentrations, thereby decreasing tRNA demand and GAAC activation.

The paper identifies and analyzes deleterious SNPs in a barley breeding population, showing they decrease in frequency over breeding cycles and are less common in high-yielding lines.

The paper shows that the mitochondrial genome origin determines temperature tolerance in lager-brewing yeast hybrids.

This study identifies genetic variants in S. cerevisiae that affect ethanol and temperature tolerance, showing their interdependent nature.

The paper evaluates seven comparative genomic methods for predicting deleterious variants in Arabidopsis thaliana and finds their relative performance varies across species.

The paper identifies genetic changes in a yeast strain adapted to molybdate and high glutathione production using evolution-based strategies and whole-genome sequencing.

This study examines cis-regulatory divergence between two yeast species, finding limited temperature-dependent effects and suggesting specific genes show differential responses.

The paper compares the abundance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and S. paradoxus in vineyard and forest habitats in Slovenia, finding S. cerevisiae more abundant in grapevines and less so on oak trees.
