Saccharomycetaceae
The Saccharomycetaceae are a family of yeasts in the order Saccharomycetales that reproduce by budding. Species in the family have a cosmopolitan distribution, and are present in a wide variety of habitats, especially those with a plentiful supply of carbohydrate sources. The family contains the species ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'', perhaps the most economically important fungus. Genera According to the 2007 Outline of Ascomycota, 20 genera are within the family, although for several of these (marked with a question mark below), the placement is uncertain and requires more study.

Kluyveromyces
''Kluyveromyces'' is a genus of ascomycetous yeasts in the family Saccharomycetaceae. Some of the species, such as '' K. marxianus'', are the teleomorphs of '' Candida species''. The genus name of ''Kluyveromyces'' is in honour of Albert Jan Kluyver ForMemRS (1888-1956), who was a Dutch microbiologist and biochemist. The genus was circumscribed by Johannes P. Van der Walt in Antonie van Leeuwenhoek vol.22 on pages 268-271 in 1956. Species ''Kluyveromyces'' is widely cultured for microbiological en genetic research. Some important species include: * ''Kluyveromyces lactis'' * ''Kluyveromyces marxianus'' * '' Kluyveromyces thermotolerans'' See also *Yeast in winemaking The role of yeast in winemaking is the most important element that distinguishes wine from fruit juice. In the :wikt:anaerobic, absence of oxygen, yeast converts the sugar in wine, sugars of the fruit into ethanol, alcohol and carbon dioxide throu ... References Saccharomycetaceae Yeasts Yeasts us ...

Kuraishia
''Kuraishia'' is a genus of two species of ascomycetous yeasts in the family Saccharomycetaceae. The type species '' Kuraishia capsulata'' was originally described as a member of ''Hansenula'' (now ''Pichia'') in 1953. The genus name of ''Kuraishia'' is in honour of Hiroshi Kuraishi, Japanese (Micro-)Biologist (Mycology and Lichenology), from the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology. '' K. molischiana'' was described as new to science in 2004. The complete genome sequence In the fields of molecular biology and genetics, a genome is all the genetic information of an organism. It consists of nucleotide sequences of DNA (or RNA in RNA viruses). The nuclear genome includes protein-coding genes and non-coding gen ... of ''K. capsulata'' was reported in 2013. K. capsulata produces extracellular exopolysahharide, phosphomannan, as an external phosphorus reserve. References Ascomycota genera Saccharomycetaceae Yeasts {{yeast-stub ...

Pachysolen (fungus)
''Pachysolen'' is a genus of yeast discovered from sulfite liquor by Boidin and Adzet (1957) and isolated by Wickerham (1970).Wickerham, L. J. 1970. Genus 14. ''Pachysolen'' Boidin et Adzet, pp. 448–454. In J. Lodder (ed.), The Yeasts. A taxonomic study, 2nd ed. North-Holland Publishing Co., Amsterdam The genus is monotypic, containing the single species ''Pachysolen tannophilus'', the first yeast identified to have a high capacity for production of ethanol from xylose Xylose ( grc, ξύλον, , "wood") is a sugar first isolated from wood, and named for it. Xylose is classified as a monosaccharide of the aldopentose type, which means that it contains five carbon atoms and includes an aldehyde functional gro ....

Pichia
''Pichia'' (''Hansenula'' and ''Hyphopichia'' are obsolete synonyms) is a genus of yeasts in the family Pichiaceae with spherical, elliptical, or oblong acuminate cells. ''Pichia'' is a teleomorph, and forms hat-shaped, hemispherical, or round ascospores during sexual reproduction. The anamorphs of some ''Pichia'' species are ''Candida (genus), Candida'' species. The asexual reproduction is by multilateral budding. The genus name of ''Pichia'' is in honour of Pico Pichi (1862-1933), who was an Italian botanist and Professor of natural history and plant pathology at a viticulture school in the town of Conegliano in the Province of Treviso. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by Emil Christian Hansen in Centralbl. Bakteriol., 2. Abt., 12 on pages 533-538 in 1904. Lactose is neither fermented nor assimilated by these species. The behaviour with regard to other carbohydrates is dependent on the different species. Nitrate is always assimilated. More than 100 spec ...

Brettanomyces
''Brettanomyces'' is a non-spore forming genus of yeast in the family Saccharomycetaceae, and is often colloquially referred to as "Brett". The genus name ''Dekkera'' is used interchangeably with ''Brettanomyces'', as it describes the teleomorph or spore forming form of the yeast, but is considered deprecated under the one fungus, one name change. The cellular morphology of the yeast can vary from ovoid to long "sausage" shaped cells. The yeast is acidogenic, and when grown on glucose rich media under aerobic conditions, produces large amounts of acetic acid. ''Brettanomyces'' is important to both the brewing and wine industries due to the sensory compounds it produces. In the wild, ''Brettanomyces'' lives on the skins of fruit. History In 1889, Seyffert of the Kalinkin Brewery in St. Petersburg was the first to isolate a "''Torula''" from English beer which produced the typical "English" taste in lager beer, and in 1899 JW Tullo at Guinness described two types of "secondary y ...
