Robust and efficient hosts are necessary to facilitate advances in biotechnology. We unveil Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain XP as a promising new microbial chassis owing to its high growth rate and robustness. This strain has a doubling time of 48.2 min, which is 12.8 min faster than the...
Starch is a primary food ingredient and bulk industrial feedstock. Producing starch through fermentation-based low-carbon microbial manufacturing serves as an arable land-independent and carbon-neutral/negative approach, while the efficiency of this route is highly d...
