Abstract

Using molecular karyotyping and genetic hybridization analysis, two new polymeric β-fructosidase genes, SUC9 and SUC10, were identified in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which are located on chromosome XIV and on the chromosome XVI/XIII doublet, respectively. The genes are responsible for fermentation of sucrose and raffinose. The SUC gene genotypes of strains VKM Y-1831 and DBVPG 1340 are SUC2 SUC9 and suc2 0 SUC10, respectively. suc2 0 is a silent sequence. The scientific and applied significance of SUC genes is discussed.
