Scientific Name Y-48049 (undescribed)
Comments Colony of undescribed yeast taxon (Y-48049) from the gut of a fungus-eating beetle. A wrinkled colony surface is characteristic of some yeast species. Note that the yeast colony (Y-48049) shows restricted growth on agar media.

Scientific Name Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Comments Life cycle of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Asexual reproduction occurs by budding in both haploid and diploid populations of cells. In sexual reproduction attraction by pheromone signaling by haploid cells is followed by plasmogamy and karyogamy. Meiosis may be delayed until after a population of diploid cells is produced. Meiosis and ascosporogenesis result in the production of haploid ascospores. Ascospores are not produced in an ascoma (fruiting body), one hallmark of the ascomycete yeasts.
