TL;DR: The database innovations that have been implemented over the past few years are explained, and new features such as advanced queries, registration of typification events, the multi-lingual database interface, the nomenclature discussion forum, annotation system, and web services with links to third parties are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid identification and differentiation of yeasts by DNA and PCR fingerprinting.
TL;DR: DNA polymorphisms were obtained which allowed us to discriminate 23 biotechnologically important strains of the yeast Saccaromyces cerevisiae and to distinguish them from strains of S. pastorianus, S. bayanus and S. willianus.
Journal ArticleDOI
