Mitochondrial genome evolution in yeasts: an all-encompassing view.

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondria are important organelles that harbor their own genomes encoding a key set of proteins that ensure respiration and provide the eukaryotic cell with energy. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies present a unique opportunity to explore mitochondrial (mt) genome evolution. The Saccharomycotina yeasts have proven to be the leading organisms for mt comparative and population genomics....
