Advances in Yarrowia Genus Exploitation: From Fundamental Research to Industrial Biotechnology

Unconventional yeasts, most notably those belonging to the genus Yarrowia, are garnering mounting interest from the scientific community due to their considerable promise in biotechnological applications. In the scientific literature, most attention is devoted to the species Y. lipolytica. The present work focuses on presenting the detailed phenotypic and metabolic characteristics of other less studied species, such as Y. bubula, Y. deformans, Y. phangngensis, and Y. alimentaria.
