Our rationale was as follows: Anecdotal reports in the literature suggest that sensitivity to toxic cations, including hygromycin B, is a characteristic of strains exhibiting alterations in K+ homeostasis.
To highlight some potentially useful characteristics of these newly laboratory-adapted yeast species described above and to alert investigators to potential practical problems, we offer several anecdotal observations culled from our collective experiences working with these nonmodel yeasts.
Anecdotal evidence bodes ill.
