Saccharomyces Paradoxus En Tant Que Système D'étude De La Spéciation Dans Les Populations Naturelles Saccharomyces paradoxus en tant que système d’étude de la spéciation dans les populations naturelles Mémoire Guillaume Charron Maîtrise en biologie Maître ès sciences (M.Sc.) Québec, Canada © Guillaume Charron, 2015 RÉSUMÉ La spéciation implique l’établissement de barrières à la reproduction entre les espèces en formation. Bien que leurs bases moléculaires soient identifiées, l’émergence de ces barrières dans le temps et la manière dont elles se propagent à l'intérieur des populations reste peu connue. Les objectifs de cette étude sont i) de déterminer la présence de Saccharomyces paradoxus au Québec ii) de déterminer le niveau d’isolement reproducteur post-zygotique entre les lignées américaines de S. paradoxus et iii) de le corréler avec la divergence génétique et les réarrangements chromosomiques. Nous avons échantillonné divers substrats au Québec afin d’isoler S. paradoxus. L’identification des levures au niveau de l’espèce s’est fait à l’aide des séquences ITS. En laboratoire nous avons vérifié le caryotype des souches de S. paradoxus par PFGE, procédé à des croisements entre les lignées et estimé l’isolement reproducteur à l’aide de la survie des spores hybrides. Notre étude confirme la présence des lignées américaines de S. paradoxus au Québec. Un isolement reproducteur est présent entre et à l’intérieur de ces lignées. La variation au niveau des profils chromosomiques à l’intérieur des lignées est corrélée avec l’isolement reproducteur. Nos résultats suggèrent que la variation au niveau des réarrangements chromosomiques ségrégerait au sein des populations et jouerait un rôle dans l’initiation de l’isolement reproducteur. iii ABSTRACT Speciation involves the emergence of reproductive barriers between the incipient species. Although the molecular bases of these barriers have been identified, we lack knowledge about the timing of their emergence and their propagation through populations. The objectives of this project are i) to look for the presence of S. paradoxus in the province of Québec, ii) to determine the level of post-zygotic reproductive isolation between the American lineages of S. paradoxus and iii) to correlate this reproductive isolation with genetic divergence and chromosomal rearrangements. We sampled different substrates through the Province of Québec to isolate S. paradoxus. Yeasts were identified to the species level using ITS sequences. We used a PFGE method to obtain the karyotypes from the S. paradoxus yeast, made experimental crosses and estimated reproductive isolation by counting surviving hybrid spores. Our study confirms the presence of the two S. paradoxus lineages in the province of Québec. We also find that reproductive isolation is not only present between strains of the two lineages but also between strains from the same lineage. A great intra-lineage variation in the chromosomal profiles is correlated with reproductive isolation. Our results suggest that variation of chromosomal rearrangements could segregate between populations and could be involved in the initiation of reproductive isolation. v TABLE DES MATIÈRES RÉSUMÉ ................................................................................................................................

Natural Saccharomyces paradoxus isolates provide new dsRNA-based killer systems available for investigation. The presence of viral dsRNA may alter transcriptional profile of S. paradoxus. To test this possibility, a high-throughput RNA sequencing was employed to compare the transcriptomes of S. paradoxus AML 15-66 K66 killer strains after curing them of either M-66 alone or both M-66 and L-A-66 dsRNA viruses. The S. paradoxus cells cured of viral dsRNA(s) showed respiration deficient or altered sporulation patterns. We have identified numerous changes in the transcription profile of genes including those linked to ribosomes and amino acid biosynthesis, as well as mitochondrial function.

Interspecific yeast hybrids used in modern monoculture inoculations benefit from a wide range of volatile metabolites that broaden the organoleptic complexity. This is the first report of sake brewing by Saccharomyces arboricola and its hybrids. S. arboricola x S. cerevisiae direct-mating generated cryotolerant interspecific hybrids which increased yields of ethanol and ethyl hexanoate compared to parental strains, important flavor attributes of fine Japanese ginjo sake rice wine. Hierarchical clustering heatmapping with principal component analysis for metabolic profiling was used in finding low levels of endogenous amino/organic acids clustered S. arboricola apart from the S.

  • Social Wasps Promote Social Behavior in Saccharomyces Spp
    COMMENTARY Social wasps promote social behavior in Saccharomyces spp. COMMENTARY Meredith Blackwella,b,1 and Cletus P. Kurtzmanc Production of fermented beverages and bread mak- ing represents a multibillion dollar worldwide industry (1) with its origins linked to the Middle East nearly 10,000 y ago (2). Despite this long history, the cause of fermentation was not discovered until the pioneer- ing work beginning in the middle of the 19th century when Louis Pasteur demonstrated that fermentation is yeast-mediated. The long-term questions have been which yeast and where did it come from? The name selected for the wine fermentation yeast was Saccha- romyces cerevisiae, but based on phenotype, it appeared that there were related fermentative spe- cies. Early studies from DNA reassociation (3) and from gene sequencing (4) verified this premise and demon- strated that additional species of Saccharomyces were involved in fermentation, such as Saccharomyces uva- rum for lager beers. DNA sequence evidence sup- ports the use of S. cerevisiae in wine making in Egypt 5,000 y ago (5). Unresolved has been an under- standing of the natural habitat of Saccharomyces spe- cies. It has been proposed that S. cerevisiae evolved into a domesticated species found only in wineries and associated vineyards, but the discovery of Saccha- romyces species on tree bark has raised the intriguing possibility that S. cerevisiae and related species have a Fig. 1. Several studies surveyed yeasts present in the gut or on the surface of natural habitat associated with forest trees (6). More various insects. The work of Stefanini et al.

  • Novel Non-Cerevisiae Saccharomyces Yeast Species Used in Beer and Alcoholic Beverage Fermentations
    fermentation Review Novel Non-Cerevisiae Saccharomyces Yeast Species Used in Beer and Alcoholic Beverage Fermentations James Bruner * and Glen Fox * Food Science and Technology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] (J.B.); [email protected] (G.F.) Received: 28 October 2020; Accepted: 22 November 2020; Published: 24 November 2020 Abstract: A great deal of research in the alcoholic beverage industry was done on non-Saccharomyces yeast strains in recent years. The increase in research interest could be attributed to the changing of consumer tastes and the search for new beer sensory experiences, as well as the rise in popularity of mixed-fermentation beers. The search for unique flavors and aromas, such as the higher alcohols and esters, polyfunctional thiols, lactones and furanones, and terpenoids that produce fruity and floral notes led to the use of non-cerevisiae Saccharomyces species in the fermentation process. Additionally, a desire to invoke new technologies and techniques for making alcoholic beverages also led to the use of new and novel yeast species. Among them, one of the most widely used non-cerevisiae strains is S. pastorianus, which was used in the production of lager beer for centuries. The goal of this review is to focus on some of the more distinct species, such as those species of Saccharomyces sensu stricto yeasts: S. kudriavzevii, S. paradoxus, S. mikatae, S. uvarum, and S. bayanus. In addition, this review discusses other Saccharomyces spp. that were used in alcoholic fermentation. Most importantly, the factors professional brewers might consider when selecting a strain of yeast for fermentation, are reviewed herein.

The employment of two temperatures (10°C in addition to the more commonly used 30°C) resulted in the isolation of S. kudriavzevii and S. uvarum, two species that grow at low temperatures, in addition to S. cerevisiae and S. paradoxus. A clear bias was found toward the bark of certain trees, particularly certain oak species. Very often, more than one Saccharomyces species was found in one locality and occasionally even in the same bark sample. Our evidence strongly suggests that (markedly) different growth temperature preferences play a fundamental role in the sympatric associations of Saccharomyces species uncovered in this survey. S. kudriavzevii was isolated at most of the sites sampled in Portugal, indicating that the geographic distribution Downloaded from of this species is wider than the distribution assumed thus far.

Saccharomyces strains isolated from natural resources, referred to as “wild” yeasts, are used for making products with strain-specific flavors that are different from those of the “domesticated” in- dustrial yeasts. The physiological effects of wild yeast are poorly understood. In this study, we isolated 2 Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains (S02 − 03) and 5 Saccharomyces paradoxus strains (P01 − 02, S01, S04 − 05) from natural resources in the Kiso area and investigated the effect of these fungal strains on IgE production by mouse spleen cells. Culturing spleen cells with heat-killed yeasts resulted in elevated IFN-γ and IL-12 levels followed by significant reduction in IgE levels. The S03 and P01 strains induced IL-12 p40 and IL-10 expression in RAW264 cells. Thus, wild strains of S. cerevisiae and S. paradoxus regulate macrophage cytokine production to improve the Th1/Th2 immune balance and suppress IgE production.
