Yeast as a Model Genetic Organism
... When diploid budding yeast are starved of nutrients, they can undergo meiosis to generate four haploid spores (Figures 1 and 2). Spores are more resistant to the environment than are vegetatively dividing cells. The four spores of a single meiosis are held together in an ascus, or tetrad, surrounded ...
