YEAST GENETICS AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
... In nature, yeast cells always grow as diploids, probably because this increases their chance to survive mutation of an essential gene (because there is another copy) Under nitrogen starvation, diploid cells sporulate and then haploid spores germinate, provided that they have received functional copi ...
