One of our main sponsors, the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, has published a nice article about our work. Yay to fundamental research! @kawresearch.bsky.social kaw.wallenberg.org/en/research/...
Wild yeasts as a model for climate research | Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation
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...

Check our preprint. Here we explore the diversity of yeast in Scandinavia, isolated from Oak bark. This work provides a baseline for future studies on the impact of climate change on the microbial biodiversity of temperate forests in northern latitudes. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Fermentative yeast diversity at the northern range limit of their oak tree hosts
Fermentative yeasts play important roles in both ecological and industrial processes but their distribution and abundance in natural environments is not well understood. We investigated the diversity ...
