Correlations among measures of phenotypic and genetic variation within an oligotrophic asexual yeast, Candida sonorensis, collected from Opuntia.

Abstract excerpt

Many descriptions of yeast species are based on a limited number of strains collected at one time from a single locale. Often, little is known of phenotypic or genotypic variation and covariation within species. We compare 36 strains of an asexual cactophilic yeast, Candida sonorensis, collected from Opuntia cacti. Comparisons were based on geographical distances between collection locales, responses to...
