Abstract excerpt
The genetic structure of populations of the out-crossing haplontic yeast species Metschnikowia lochheadii was investigated.

The objective was to determine whether sexual reproduction is prevalent and to what extent the geographic distribution of genotypes can be viewed as historical. The genetic markers examined include the mating...
