Revealing complex traits with small molecules and naturally recombinant yeast strains.

Abstract excerpt

Here we demonstrate that natural variants of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are a model system for the systematic study of complex traits, specifically the response to small molecules. As a complement to artificial knockout collections of S. cerevisiae widely used to study individual gene function, we used 314- and 1932-member libraries of mutant strains generated by meiotic recombination to study the...
