<i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> is a typical fermentation yeast in beer production. Improving ethanol tolerance of <i>S. cerevisiae</i> will increase fermentation efficiency, thereby reducing capital costs. Here, we found that <i>S. cerevisiae</i> strain L exhibited a higher ethanol tolerance (14%, v/v) than the fermentative strain Q (10%, v/v). In order to enhance the strain Q ethanol tolerance but preserve its fermentation property, protoplast fusion was performed with haploids from strain Q a ...[more]
