Definition:"Genus Saccharomyces" refers to a group of single-celled yeasts. These tiny organisms reproduce without the need for mating, a process called asexual reproduction, usually by a method called budding. They are important because they are used to ferment carbohydrates, which means they help turn sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. This process is commonly used in baking and brewing.
