2016
Darbā tika pārbaudīta maizes rauga stresa izturība purīnu trūkuma gadījumā. Ietekme uz izdzīvotību tika novērtēta audzējot gan auksotrofu, gan prototrofa celmu šūnas barotnēs ar atšķirīgu oglekļa avotu un purīnu sastāvu, pēc tam visus paraugus pakļaujot subletālam oksidatīvajam, termiskajam vai vāju skābju stresam stresam un novērtējot izdzīvotību.
