Overview

Aims and Scope

Yeast publishes original articles and reviews on the most significant developments of research with unicellular fungi, including innovative methods of broad applicability. It is essential reading for those wishing to keep up to date with this rapidly moving field of yeast biology.

Topics covered include:

  • biochemistry and molecular biology
  • biodiversity and taxonomy
  • biotechnology
  • cell and developmental biology
  • ecology and evolution
  • genetics and genomics
  • metabolism and physiology
  • pathobiology
  • synthetic and systems biology
  • tools and resources

In addition, the journal contains several invited review types: Budding Topics, which offer an insightful view of the work of young PIs; Yeast Primers, focusing on new non-conventional species and species communities; the EcoYeast series, reporting on the ecology of yeasts in their environmental niches; Yeast Extracts, providing the vision of renowned scientists on their field of expertise; and the technoYeast series, focusing on various yeast utilization strategies. The journal publishes one special issue per year on a selected leading topic in yeast biology.

The journal also promotes the collegiate activities of the yeast research community by publishing announcements of Meetings and Courses, as well as the Abstracts of major conferences.
