Ascomycetous Yeasts and Yeastlike Taxa

Breadmaking and brewing are so common that mention of these processes immediately brings Saccharomyces cerevisiae to mind. The importance of this particular yeast is further underscored by its use as a model eukaryote in many areas of molecular biology. However, the ascomycetous yeasts are a phylogenetically diverse group and numerous other species also markedly impact human activities.
