The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a highly advanced model system for studying genetics, cell biology and systems biology. Over the past decade, the application of high-throughput sequencing technologies to this species has contributed to this yeast also becoming an important model for evolutionary genomics. Indeed, comparative genomic analyses of laboratory, wild and domesticated yeast populations are providing unprecedented detail about many of the processes that govern evolution, including long-term processes, such as reproductive isolation and speciation, and short-term processes, such as adaptation to natural and domestication-related environments.

通过发芽酵母比较基因组学的视角看进化生物学

出芽的酿酒酵母是用于研究遗传学，细胞生物学和系统生物学的高度先进的模型系统。在过去的十年中，高通量测序技术对该物种的应用促进了该酵母的生长，该酵母也成为进化基因组学的重要模型。实际上，对实验室，野生和驯化酵母种群的比较基因组分析提供了许多控制进化的过程的空前细节，包括长期过程（例如生殖分离和物种形成）以及短期过程（例如对自然的适应）以及与驯化相关的环境。
