Outline of Final Research Achievements |
How ploidy in organisms is controlled is one of the important issues in modern biology. Industrial strains of budding yeast is well known to be polyploid is also interesting fact in biotechnology in connection with useful characteristics. However, research regarding physiological significance of ploidy is not advanced due to unavailable technology to construct polyploid at will. In this study, we have developed a novel breeding technology to construct a series of polyploid strain by using a specific mutation of mating type αin budding yeast. We have created hexaploid, octoploid and decaploid using this technique. We are now challenging whether more higher polyploid strain could be created.
