yeasts
yeasts A group of unicellular fungi within the class Hemiascomycetae of the phylum Ascomycota. They occur as single cells or as groups or chains of cells; yeasts reproduce asexually by budding and sexually by producing ascospores. Yeasts of the genus Saccharomyces ferment sugars and are used in the baking and brewing industries (see baker's yeast).
