According to data on the habitats of yeasts, mainly from Sanger Institute and Washington University databases, strains were first classified into 7 major groups: Baker, Clinical, Fermentation processes, Laboratory, Vineyard, Natural and Wine commercial. The Fermentation processes and Natural clades were further differentiated into three and five subgroups, respectively.
