Mapping Ethanol Tolerance in Budding Yeast Reveals High Genetic Variation in a Wild Isolate

Mapping Ethanol Tolerance in Budding Yeast Reveals High Genetic Variation in a Wild Isolate

Ethanol tolerance, a polygenic trait of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is the primary factor determining industrial bioethanol productivity. Until now, genomic elements affecting ethanol tolerance have been mapped only at low resolution, hindering their identification. Here, we explore the gene...
