Rapid Identification of Major QTL_S Associated With Near- Freezing Temperature Tolerance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

ABSTRACT: Temperatures had a strong effect on many life history traits, including growth, development and reproduction. At near-freezing temperatures (0-4°C), yeast cells could trigger series of biochemical reactions to respond and adapt to the stress, protect them against sever cold and freeze injury. Different Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains vary greatly in their ability to grow at near-freezing temperatures. However, the molecular mechanisms that allow yeast cells to sustain this response are not yet fully understood and the genetic basis of tolerance and sensitivity to near-freeze stress remains unclear. Uncovering the genetic determinants of this trait is, therefore, of is of significant interest. In order to investigate the genetic basis that underlies near-freezing temperature toleran
