title: Replication and recombination in gene establishment in non-Saccharomyces yeasts.
abstract: A brief review is given on the establishment of recombinant DNA technology for non-conventional yeasts. The availability of DNA delivery systems, selectable markers for identification of transformants, and the means of replicating and amplifying the recombinant DNA are discussed. Some of the existing transformation systems among non-conventional yeasts are explained.
