Genetic Transformation of Yeast [PDF]
Genetic transformation was first described by Griffith in 1928 and has since been demonstrated in a variety of organisms, including many species of fungi. This review focuses on the history and technology of the transformation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

First Steps towards Underdominant Genetic Transformation of Insect Populations [PDF]
The idea of introducing genetic modifications into wild populations of insects to stop them from spreading diseases is more than 40 years old. Synthetic disease refractory genes have been successfully generated for mosquito vectors of dengue fever and ...

Genetic Transformation in Cryptococcus Species [PDF]
Genetic transformation plays an imperative role in our understanding of the biology in unicellular yeasts and filamentous fungi, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Aspergillus nidulans, Cryphonectria parasitica, and Magnaporthe oryzae.

Genetic Transformation and Complementation. [PDF]
The disciplines of Borrelia (Borreliella) burgdorferi microbiology and Lyme disease pathogenesis have come to depend on the genetic manipulation of the spirochete. Generating mutants in these recalcitrant bacteria, while not straightforward, is routinely accomplished in numerous laboratories, although there are several crucial caveats to consider. This

Genetic Transformation in Yeasts [PDF]
SUMMARY: The transformability of 25 strains of yeasts belonging to 23 species in three genera - Saccharomyces, Hansenula and Candida - was investigated with respect to ten characters. Eighteen hour cultures at about the end of the log phase of growth, addition of 10 μg DNA/ml, and an incubation time of 30 min at 30 to 37 °C usually yielded best results.

Insights into the genetic influences of the microbiota on the life span of a host
Escherichia coli (E. coli) mutant strains have been reported to extend the life span of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). However, the specific mechanisms through which the genes and pathways affect aging are not yet clear.
