Genome sequencing of Candida glabrata evolved under environmental stresses. Nakaseomyces glabratus

Candida glabrata has high inherent tolerance to various environmental stresses, including heat and hydrogen peroxide. These traits play a important role in its success as both a human opportunistic pathogen and potential industrial producer. In the present study, we used a high-throughput sequencing method to identify genetic determinants that contribute to the improved tolerance to various environmental stresses (hydrogen peroxide and hyperthermal stress) in adaptive isolates and population samples from laboratory adaptive evolution.
