Phenotypic heterogeneity is a selected trait in natural yeast populations subject to environmental stress (2013)
Journal Article
Holland, S. L., Reader, T., Dyer, P. S., & Avery, S. V. (2014). Phenotypic heterogeneity is a selected trait in natural yeast populations subject to environmental stress. Environmental Microbiology, 16(6), 1729-1740. https://doi.org/10.1111/1462-2920.12243

Populations of genetically uniform microorganisms exhibit phenotypic heterogeneity, where individual cells have varying phenotypes. Such phenotypes include fitness-determining traits. Phenotypic heterogeneity has been linked to increased population-l... Read More about Phenotypic heterogeneity is a selected trait in natural yeast populations subject to environmental stress.

Sexual reproduction and mating-type-mediated strain development in the penicillin-producing fungus Penicillium chrysogenum (2013)
Journal Article
Böhm, J., Hoff, B., O'Gorman, C. M., Wolfers, S., Klix, V., Binger, D., …Kück, U. (2013). Sexual reproduction and mating-type-mediated strain development in the penicillin-producing fungus Penicillium chrysogenum.

Penicillium chrysogenum is a filamentous fungus of major medical and historical importance, being the original and present-day industrial source of the antibiotic penicillin. The species has been considered asexual for more than 100 y, and despite co...
