In this study we show that thermotolerance and thermoresistance of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisae is enhanced when cells are in colonial condition. We also describe a method to select stable thermoresistant mutants which produce colonies from single plated cells at a temperature 2.5 degrees C higher than the maximum growth temperature of their parental strain.
