2019 Abstracts We are delighted EDITORIAL to welcome the worldwide yeast community in Gothenburg for ICYGMB2019! The “International Yeast Conferences” started in the 1960s with a handful of delegates and since then have become THE most important event in yeast research. Now the yeast meeting to returns to Gothenburg. Many yeast researchers still remember the meeting in 2003 with over 1,100 delegates, a truly memorable event. The Life Sciences are changing, and yeast research remains at their forefront. Advancements in genome sequencing and genome editing just make yeast more exciting as model organism in basic cell biological research, genome evolution and as a tool for synthetic biology and biotechnology. One of the most important reasons for the enormous success of yeast research lies in the unique character of the international yeast research community. No other community employs such a free exchange and access to information and research tools. Nor has any other community had the ability to build – even intercontinental – consortia of critical mass to tackle large‐scale projects, such as in sequencing the first eukaryotic genome or the first comprehensive yeast knockout library. Yeast2019 is the meeting of the international yeast research community where the latest, and even unpublished results are exchanged, and new projects, alliances, and collaborations are founded. A do‐not‐miss‐event. We attempt to incorporate the present excitement in yeast research in the programme of yeast2019. We are confident that this conference will contain important news and information for all yeast researchers. Taken together, yeast2019 will provide an up‐ to‐date overview in yeast research and it will set the scene for years to come. After all, it is one of the most affordable international conferences of such as size and reputation!

The poor stability and productivity of the Keywords: available PET biocatalysts hinder their industrial applications. Active PET biocatalysts can provide a promising Plastic waste avenue for PET bioconversion and recycling. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new strategies that Poly(ethylene terephthalate) could enhance the stability, catalytic activity, solubility, productivity, and re-usability of these PET biocatalysts Recycling under harsh conditions such as high temperatures, pH, and salinity. This has raised great attention in using Biocatalysts ’ Bioengineering bioengineering strategies to improve PET biocatalysts robustness and catalytic behavior. Herein, historical and forecasting data of plastic production and disposal were critically reviewed.

Faris Dr. Phillip E. McClean Dr. Timothy L. Friesen Approved: November 7, 2018 Jack Rasmussen Date Department Chair ABSTRACT Tan spot of wheat, caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis, is an economically important disease worldwide. The disease system is known to involve three pairs of interactions between fungal-produced necrotrophic effectors (NEs) and the wheat sensitivity genes, namely Ptr ToxA- Tsn1, Ptr ToxB-Tsc2 and Ptr ToxC-Tsc1, all of which result in susceptibility. Many lines of evidence also suggested the involvement of additional fungal virulence and host resistance factors. Due to the non-proteinaceous nature, Ptr ToxC, has not been purified and the fungal gene (s) controlling Ptr ToxC production is unknown. The objective for the first part of research is to map the fungal gene (s) controlling Ptr ToxC production. Therefore, A bi-parental fungal population segregating for Ptr ToxC production was first developed from genetically modified heterothallic strains of AR CrossB10 (Ptr ToxC producer) and 86-124 (Ptr ToxC non-producer), and then was genotyped and phenotyped.

Thanks to the engagement of Michel Crépeau, the visionary Mayor of La Rochelle from 1971 to 1999, who provided the driving force to co- ordinate, promote, and encourage all stakeholders in sustainable development initiatives, sustainability has been incorporated into the economic development model central to the political agenda and the long-term plan of the city. Just like the city itself, sustainability is a core and central part of the School’s strategy. The School’s mission makes an explicit commitment to CSR and Sustainability and actively seeks to drive practice by engaging: faculty members across disciplinary boundaries to investigate and disseminate their findings in Sustainability to the academic and corporate world, placing them in a dominant position on thought and practice leadership students to participate in ‘real world’ CSR projects that span issues, disciplines, and skill sets. Two key events are hallmarks of the School’s long-term commitment to sustainable development: In 1999, the creation of the first Master programme in Sustainable development in France. It recognised the need to consider management practices and promote responsible business education, both in teaching and research. Ethics and CSR are central to the School’s vision and constitute one of the underlying principles of its academic framework.

I will always remember you saying, "Oh, sweetie, too many sighs! If you are not having fun (with the dissertation research) then something is wrong." Thank you for not only patiently drawing out my best work, but for making the process a delightful one. Janaki, thank you for all I am learning from you in Spark and through this process. Abi joined my committee officially in my final semester, but had already been giving me encouragement and support for many years. It is much appreciated. I'd like to thank Charles Curtin, who served on my committee for a time, but due to extenuating circumstances, was not able to continue in that role.
