What is another word for mating of yeast?
Pronunciation: [mˈe͡ɪtɪŋ ɒv jˈiːst] (IPA) 
The process of "mating of yeast" can also be referred to as yeast cell fusion or yeast conjugation. During this process, haploid cells of opposite mating types (a and α) fuse together and form a diploid cell, which contains both sets of chromosomes. This diploid cell can then undergo meiosis and form four haploid spores, which will ultimately become new yeast cells. Synonyms for the term "mating of yeast" can also include yeast sexual reproduction, yeast sexual conjugation, and yeast mating behavior. This process plays a crucial role in the genetic diversity and survival of yeast populations.
