Genomic diversity and meiotic recombination among isolates of the biotech yeast Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris)

Abstract Background Komagataella phaffii is a yeast widely used in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, and is one of the two species that were previously called Pichia pastoris. However, almost all laboratory work on K. phaffii has utilized strains derived from a single natural isolate,...
