Phenotypic landscape of non-conventional yeast species for different stress tolerance traits desirable in bioethanol fermentation

Abstract Background Non-conventional yeasts present a huge, yet barely exploited, resource of yeast biodiversity for industrial applications. This presents a great opportunity to explore alternative ethanol-fermenting yeasts that are more adapted to some of the stress factors present in the harsh en...
