Development of genetic maps of non‐conventional yeasts*
Plenary lecture presented at the XIIth International Specialized Symposium on Yeast: “Genetics of non‐conventional yeasts”, held in Weimar, GDR, September 13–19, 1987
Abstract
Numerous methods based on classical genetics have been developed for the genetic mapping of yeasts. Recombinant DNA technology and technology for electrophoretic separation of chromosomes make new approaches possible. The state‐of‐the‐art in genetic mapping of Saccharomyces cerevisiae will be briefly reviewed. Then the availability and application of genetic mapping methods to non‐conventional yeasts will be surveyed. Development of the genetic maps of the asexual diploid Candida albicans and of the heterothallic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica will be discussed in more detail.
