… separately, into one copy of the ho locus of YJM237 (McCusker … cassettes were
integrated into one copy of the ho locus of the prototrophic S288c diploid strain YJM237 (McCusker …

We have developed high-density DNA microarrays of yeast ORFs. These microarrays can
monitor hybridization to ORFs for applications such as quantitative differential gene …

Most phenotypic diversity in natural populations is characterized by differences in degree
rather than in kind. Identification of the actual genes underlying these quantitative traits has …

The immunosuppressants cyclosporin A (CsA) and FK506 inhibit the protein phosphatase
calcineurin and block T‐cell activation and transplant rejection. Calcineurin is conserved in …

Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a well-established model for species as diverse as humans and
pathogenic fungi, is more recently a model for population and quantitative genetics. S. …

As more genomes are sequenced, the identification and characterization of the causes of
heritable variation within a species will be increasingly important. It is demonstrated that allelic …

We sequenced the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain YJM789, which was derived
from a yeast isolated from the lung of an AIDS patient with pneumonia. The strain is used …

Bioethanol is a biofuel produced mainly from the fermentation of carbohydrates derived
from agricultural feedstocks by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. One of the most widely …

Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates from human patients have been genetically analyzed.
Some of the characteristics of these isolates are very different from laboratory and industrial …

Several quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping strategies can successfully identify major-effect
loci, but often have poor success detecting loci with minor effects, potentially due to the …
