  • Adaptation of extremely halotolerant black yeast Hortaea werneckii to increased osmolarity : a molecular perspective at a glance
    Plemenitaš, Ana, 1952- ...
    Halophilic adaptations have been studied almost exclusively on prokaryotic microorganisms. Discovery of the black yeast Hortaea werneckii as the dominantfungal species in hypersaline waters enabled ... the introduction of a newmodel organism to study the mechanisms of salt tolerance in eukaryotes. Itsstrategies of cellular osmotic adaptations on the physiological and molecular level revealed novel, intricate mechanisms to combat fluctuating salinity. H. werneckii is an extremely halotolerant eukaryotic microorganism and thus a promising source of transgenes for osmotolerance improvement of industrially important yeasts, as well as in crops.
