Harnessing Brazilian microbial diversity, comprehensive phenotypic screening of 79 yeast isolates identified non-conventional strains with superior multi-stress tolerance and metabolic versatility co...

Ichizawa et al. show that cats maintain durable chemical individuality in urine through donor-specific branched-chain fatty acid (BFA) profiles stabilized by renal cortical lipid droplets. This kidney...

Yeasts are widespread members of microbial communities across terrestrial, aquatic, and host-associated environments, yet they remain underrepresented in microbiome studies due to low abundance and m....

Yeasts and related fungi isolated from cacti or nearby non-cactus plants were characterized phenotypically and genomically, revealing differences that hint at modes of adaptation to the cactus host.

Nature Reviews Microbiology, Published online: 23 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41579-026-01333-8The bioactive compounds and microbial consortia contained in plant-based fermented foods support oral and gut microbiota, host immune function and metabolic resilience. This Review describes the impact of the fermented food microbiome on the oral–gut axis and identifies a strategic roadmap to integrate this edible microbiome into precision nutrition practices to promote health.

Scientists who began their doctoral studies in 2020 found their feet during a global pandemic and are graduating into an uncertain and chaotic future.

Yeasts are exposed to oxidative stress during routine metabolism, bioproduction, and interactions with other organisms. Here, the authors use a machine learning classifier to identify genes that are p...

The authors sequence and phenotype over 1,000 isolates of the yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis, and show how allopolyploidization reshapes genome evolution and enhances phenotypic diversity, highlight...

Wild yeasts live in the forests all around us. Yet, little is known about the role they play in ecosystems. They can be used to develop new beer and bread flavors, but wild yeast can also serve as a u...

The increasing accessibility of long-read sequencing and the rapid development of automated variant callers are promoting the generation of population-level structural variation data. However, the eff...
