Saccharomyces Genome Resequencing Project Strains

The Sanger Centre's Saccharomyces Genome Resequencing Project (SGRP) has involved the sequencing of 36 Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains and 35 Saccharomyces paradoxus strains. These strains are available to purchase from the NCYC.

With the exception of the S. cerevisiae laboratory strains S288c and W303, which are both stable haploids, each strain is available as a single spore derivative of the original homothallic parent strain. Please note that these strains retain a functional HO gene (i.e. are HO strains), and are therefore diploid. Stable haploid versions of these strains are currently being created and will, in due course, be made available for purchase.
