mSphere of Influence: the Wild Genetic Diversity of Our Closest Yeast Companions

ABSTRACT Douda Bensasson uses the population genomics of model yeast species to understand how wild yeast colonize new environments, such as humans or their food. In this mSphere of Influence article, she reflects on how the discovery of “Surprisingly diverged populations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae...
