The Yeast Genomics Lab describes the first indication of domestication of wine and cider yeast Saccharomyces uvarum
This new study, “A Gondwanan imprint on global diversity and domestication of wine and cider yeast Saccharomyces uvarum”, published in Nature Communications, describes the use of a population genomics approach to perform a comprehensive phylogeographic survey of S. uvarum with special focus on the detection, for the first time, of fingerprints of domestication in this species.
PTNMR coordinated by Eurico Cabrita was recommended to integrate the National Roadmap of Research Infrastructures
In the recent FCT call for the National Roadmap for Research Infrastructures the Portuguese Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Network (PTNMR) coordinated by Prof. Eurico Cabrita was recommended to integrate the National Roadmap of Research Infrastructures and was classified as Category 1 - by having demonstrated high scientific potential and being considered to have high strategic regional and/or national relevance.
