Random Transfer of <i>Ogataea polymorpha</i> Genes into <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> Reveals a Complex Background of Heat Tolerance

Horizontal gene transfer, a process through which an organism acquires genes from other organisms, is a rare evolutionary event in yeasts. Artificial random gene transfer can emerge as a valuable tool in yeast bioengineering to investigate the background of complex phenotypes, such as heat tolerance...
