Project description:To characterize the ecological interactions among S. cerevisiae strains coming from the same geographical area, we examined the fitness of two natural isolates from San Giovese grapes, alone or in competition, in synthetic wine must (SWM). We performed genome-wide analyses in order to identify the genes involved in yeast competition and cooperation.

Project description:The aim of this project was to evaluate the ploidy of a S. cerevisiae *S. kudriavzevii hybrid in comparison to the lab strain S288C. Other wine yeast have been icluded in the project for the global analysis.
