Meiotic recombination-based genome shuffling of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and characterization by genome sequencing and RNA-seq transcriptional expression profiling for improved tolerance to spent sulfite liquor
Spent sulfite liquor (SSL) is a waste effluent from sulfite pulping that contains monomeric sugars that can be fermented to ethanol. However, the inhibitory substances found in this complex feedstock adversely affect yeasts used for the fermentation of the sugars in SSL. To overcome this limitatio...
