Giant GAL gene clusters for the melibiose-galactose pathway in Torulaspora
TL;DR: It is reported here that some yeast strains in the genus Torulaspora have much larger GAL clusters that include genes for melibiase, galactose permease, glucose transporter, and the transcription factor GAL4, in addition to GAL1, GAL10, and GAL7.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of genetic variants of the industrial yeast Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris) that contribute to increased yields of secreted heterologous proteins
Benjamin Offei,Stephanie Braun-Galleani,Anjan Venkatesh,William Casey,Kevin E. O’Connor,Kevin P. Byrne,Kenneth H. Wolfe +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for yeast Komagataella phaffii to analyze the basis of biotechnological traits in nonconventional yeasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Letal I. Salzberg,Alexandre A. R. Martos,Lisa Lombardi,Lars S. Jermiin,Alfonso Blanco,Kevin P. Byrne,Kenneth H. Wolfe +6 more
TL;DR: The authors and INV isomers are not ancient alleles but are continually being re-created by re-inversion of the region within each species The authors and inverted (INV).

The Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) Reveals Useful Polymorphisms Among European Ecotypes
Kerstin Diekmann,Trevor R. Hodkinson,Kenneth H. Wolfe,Rob Jozef Matheus van den Bekerom,Phillip J. Dix,Susanne Barth +5 more
TL;DR: The complete chloroplast genome sequence of the important forage species, perennial ryegrass, was hitherto unknown and sequenced, assembled and annotated, and searched it for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and simple sequence repeats (cpSSRs).

TL;DR: This article proposed an updated classification for the Saccharomycotina, including seven classes and 12 orders that can be diagnosed by genome content, which is consistent with the high levels of genomic diversity within this sub-phylum and is necessary to make the higher rank classification of the higher-order fungi more comparable to other fungi, as well as to communicate efficiently on lineages that are not yet formally named.
