Intraspecies diversity of the industrial yeast strains Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces pastorianus based on analysis of the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the D1/D2 region of 26S rDNA.

Abstract excerpt

We divided industrial yeast strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae into three groups based on the sequences of their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. One group contained sake yeasts, shochu yeasts, and one bakery yeast, another group contained wine yeasts, and the third group contained beer and whisky yeasts, including seven bakery yeasts. The three groups were distinguished by polymorphisms at two...
