Fig. 1From: Diversity, variability and fast adaptive evolution of the wine yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) genome—a reviewHypothetical model of fast adaptive genome evolution (FAGE) of wine yeasts. Each line represents a clone of cells. Less competitive clones are gradually outcompeted and vanish from the population (lines ending with full circles). Clones living in the last phase of fermentation are marked with arrowheads. These will sporulate and their spores will germinate in the next vintage. Solid-line arrow Autodiploidisation, dotted-line arrow heterodiplodisation by sister-spore conjugation, broken-line arrow heterodiploidisation by non-sister conjugation, MS meiotic segregation, GP genome purification, SG spore germination, DI diploidisation, vFAGE fast adaptive evolution during vegetative growth, sFAGE fast adaptive evolution in the sexual stageBack to article page
