Genome evolution across 1,011 Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates

The 1002 Yeast Genomes project first began as the ambitious next step to understanding the important model species Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The project represents the efforts of a collaboration between Joseph Schacherer’s laboratory at the Université de Strasbourg, Gianni Liti’s laboratory at the Institute for Research on Cancer and Aging (IRCAN) in Nice, as well as Genoscope and has been funded largely by France Génomique. The primary goal of this project was to obtain the most comprehensive genomic data set to date, on a single species of yeast, and ultimately provide the most extensive view of the genetic and phenotypic diversity within this model species to date.
