The Genome Sequence of the Jean-Talon Strain, an Archeological Beer Yeast from Québec, Reveals Traces of Adaptation to Specific Brewing Conditions

The Genome Sequence of the Jean-Talon Strain, an Archeological Beer Yeast from Québec, Reveals Traces of Adaptation to Specific Brewing Conditions

The genome sequences of archeological Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates can reveal insights about the history of human baking, brewing and winemaking activities. A yeast strain called Jean-Talon was recently isolated from the vaults of the Intendant’s Palace of Nouvelle France on a historical site i...
