    Notes: Summary The relationship between varieties “marxianus” and “lactis” of Kluyveromyces marxianus was investigated. Strains of these varieties readily form hybrids, but their classification in one species has recently been contested. Enzyme patterns and the GC contents of their DNAs differed significantly. Moreover, DNA-DNA reassociation was less than 15%. Since the generally accepted definition of a species is based on gene exchange, we used two approaches for directly detecting genetic recombination in crosses between representatives of both species. First, multiple marked strains were crossed, and the offspring from the resulting hybrids analyzed. Secondly, the fate of individual chromosomes in identical crosses was followed by comparing the karyotypes of the parent strains, the hybrids formed between them, and the descendants of these hybrids. Karyotypes were obtained by orthogonal-field-altemation gel electrophoresis (OFAGE). Gene exchange was not detected with either method. We therefore concluded that the formation of hybrids, even when they produced viable offspring, was not sufficient to include var. “lactis” and var. “marxianus” in one species.

    Notes: The cloned part of the flocculation gene FLO1 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Teunissen, A.W.R.H., van den Berg, J.A. and Steensma, H.Y. (1993). Physical localization of the flocculation gene FLO1 on chromosome I of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast, in press) has been sequenced. The sequence contains a large open reading frame of 2685 bp. The amino acid sequence of the putative protein reveals a serine- and threonine-rich C-terminus (46%), the presence of repeated sequences and a possible secretion signal at the N-terminus. Although the sequence is not complete (we assume the missing fragment consists of repeat units), these data strongly suggest that the protein is located in the cell wall, and thus may be directly involved in the flocculation process.
