Transfer of genetic material between pathogenic and food-borne yeasts
(2006) In Applied and Environmental Microbiology 72(7). p.5122-5125- Abstract
- Many pathogenic yeast species are asexual and therefore not involved in intra- or interspecies mating. However, high-frequency transfer of plasmid DNA was observed when pathogenic and food-borne yeasts were grown together. This property could play a crucial role in the spread of virulence and drug resistance factors among yeasts.
