Saccharomyces kudriavzevii, a budding yeast, is a member of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto group. It is closely related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae; these two yeast species are separated by an estimated 10-20 million years of evolution.
The Saccharomyces kudriavzevii genome is estimated at 12 Mb, organized in 16 chromosomes. It shows a high conservation of synteny with the S. cerevisiae genome.
