a Comparative analysis of the predicted proteome of the Saccharomycodeacea species S. ludwigii, H. guilliermondii, H. uvarum and H. osmophila. The ORFeome predicted for S. ludwigii UTAD17 strain was compared with the one of the Hanseniaspora species that also belong to the Saccharomycodeacea family using pair-wise BLASTP alignments. Three species belonging to the Saccharomycetacea family with relevance in the wine environment, S. cerevisiae, L. fermentati and T. delbrueckii were also included in this comparative analysis. The graph shows the number of S. ludwigii proteins highly similar (e-value below or equal to e^− 20 and identity above 50%), similar (e-value below or equal to e^− 20 and identity between 30 and 50%) or dissimilar (e-value above e^− 20) from those found in the other yeast species considered. b The S. ludwigii UTAD17 proteins found to be dissimilar from those found in the other yeast species were compared and the results are shown in the Venn plot. In the picture are highlighted the 526 proteins that were unique of S. ludwigii as no robust homologue could be found in any of the other yeast species considered and also the 201 S. ludwigii that were found in the Saccharomycetacea species but in the other Saccharomycodeacea species. Some of the functions represented in these two protein datasets are highlighted in this picture, with the complete list being provided in supplementary Table S5
