Factors Which Affect the Frequency of Sporulation and Tetrad Formation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Baker's Yeasts.
TLDR
When mitochondria from laboratory, baker's, and wine yeasts were transferred to baker's and laboratory petite strains, sporulation and four-spore ascus formation frequencies dropped dramatically either to no sporulation at all or to less than 50% in both parameters.Abstract:

Dissecting the architecture of a quantitative trait locus in yeast
Lars M. Steinmetz,Himanshu Sinha,Daniel R. Richards,Jamie Spiegelman,Peter J. Oefner,John H. McCusker,Ronald W. Davis +6 more
TL;DR: This study combined genome-wide mapping and a new genetic technique named reciprocal-hemizygosity analysis to achieve the complete dissection of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and uncovered a QTL architecture that was more complex than expected.

Paola Fabrizio,Valter D. Longo +1 more
TL;DR: The yeast S. cerevisiae model system is reviewed with emphasis on the chronological life span as a model system to study aging and the regulation of stress resistance in eukaryotes.

Improving industrial yeast strains: exploiting natural and artificial diversity
Jan Steensels,Tim Snoek,Esther Meersman,Martina Picca Nicolino,Karin Voordeckers,Kevin J. Verstrepen +5 more
TL;DR: The different strategies of strain selection and improvement available for both conventional and nonconventional yeasts are discussed, providing a new source of yeast genetic diversity.

Inhibition of climbing fibres is a signal for the extinction of conditioned eyelid responses
TL;DR: This work used reversible infusion of synaptic receptor antagonists to show that blocking inhibitory input to the climbing fibres prevents extinction of the conditioned response, whereas blocking excitatory input induces extinction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative trait loci mapped to single-nucleotide resolution in yeast.
TL;DR: The results provide the highest resolution to date of the molecular basis of a quantitative trait, showing that the interaction of a few genetic variants can have a profound phenotypic effect.

Effect of benzoic acid on metabolic fluxes in yeasts: A continuous‐culture study on the regulation of respiration and alcoholic fermentation
TL;DR: The effect of benzoate on respiration was dependent on the dilution rate: at high dilution rates respiration increased proportionally with increasing Benzoate concentration as mentioned in this paper.

A mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae defective for nuclear fusion

TL;DR: Cytological and genetic evidence shows that in this mutant the events associated with zygote formation are normal until the point of nuclear fusion, and the defect kn kaf1-1 appears to be nuclear limited.

R S Zitomer,C V Lowry +1 more
TL;DR: A number of anaerobic genes that show heme-independent, oxygen-repressed expression have been identified, suggesting that there are at least two different regulatory circuitries.
