Why is contamination with diastatic yeasts increasing? An edited version of a Brauwelt article from last year by myself and Nerve Zhou. Our recent research on diastatic yeasts has already answered some of the questions raised in the piece. But more on that later... www.drinktec.com/en-US/indust...

As we continue to witness first report occurrences of #insects in #southern #African countries (e.g. #Botswana), I wonder which #yeast species they harbor in their guts... dx.doi.org/10.3391/bir.... #YeastsofSA #yeast_insect_interractions

Reminder, if you are yeast biologist (species agnostic, just need be single celled and a fungus) please let me know and I will add you to this starter pack. go.bsky.app/PyUwqLU
