Discovery of mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by pooled linkage analysis and whole-genome sequencing.

Abstract excerpt

Many novel and important mutations arise in model organisms and human patients that can be difficult or impossible to identify using standard genetic approaches, especially for complex traits. Working with a previously uncharacterized dominant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant with impaired vacuole inheritance, we developed a pooled linkage strategy based on next-generation DNA sequencing to specifically identify...
