H. Heluane et al., CHARACTERIZATION OF HYBRIDS OBTAINED BY PROTOPLAST FUSION, BETWEEN PACHYSOLEN-TANNOPHILUS AND SACCHAROMYCES-CEREVISIAE, Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 40(1), 1993, pp. 98-100
The genes for utilization of xylose were transferred from Pachysolen t
annophilus to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The hybrids resembled the S. c
erevisiae parent morphologically and in sugar assimilation. Pulsed fie
ld gel electrophoresis showed that the chromosome banding pattern was
intermediate between the two parental species.
