The Saccharomycetaceae are a family of yeasts in the order Saccharomycetales that reproduce by budding. Species in the family have a cosmopolitan distribution, and are present in a wide variety of habitats, especially those with a plentiful supply of carbohydrate sources.[1] The family contains the species Saccharomyces cerevisiae, perhaps the most economically important fungus.
