Yeasts, like all fungi, may have asexual andsexual reproductive cycles. The most common mode of vegetative growth in yeast is asexual reproduction by budding. Here, a small bud (also known as a bleb), or daughter cell, is formed on the parent cell. The nucleusof the parent cell splits into a daughter nucleus and migrates into the daughter cell. The bud continues to grow until it separates from the parent cell, forming a new cell.The daughter cell produced during the budding process is generally smaller than the mother cell. Some yeasts, includingSchizosaccharomyces pombe, reproduce byfission instead of budding, thereby creating two identically sized daughter cells.

In general, under high-stress conditions such as nutrient starvation, haploid cells will die; under the same conditions, however, diploidcells can undergo sporulation, entering sexual reproduction (meiosis) and producing a variety of haploid spores, which can go on tomate (conjugate), reforming the diploid.

The haploid fission yeastSchizosaccharomyces pombe is a facultativesexual microorganism that can undergo mating when nutrients are limiting.Exposure of S. pombe to hydrogen peroxide, an agent that causes oxidative stress leading to oxidative DNA damage, strongly induces mating and the formation of meiotic spores. The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae reproduces by mitosis as diploid cells when nutrients are abundant, but when starved, this yeast undergoes meiosis to form haploid spores. Haploid cells may then reproduce asexually by mitosis. Katz Ezov et al. presented evidence that in natural S. cerevisiae populations clonal reproduction and selfing (in the form of intratetrad mating) predominate. In nature, mating of haploid cells to form diploid cells is most often between members of the same clonal population and out-crossing is uncommon.Analysis of the ancestry of natural S. cerevisiae strains led to the conclusion that out-crossing occurs only about once every 50,000 cell divisions. These observations suggest that the possible long-term benefits of outcrossing (e.g. generation of diversity) are likely to be insufficient for generally maintaining sex from one generation to the next. Rather, a short-term benefit, such as recombinational repair during meiosis,may be the key to the maintenance of sex inS. cerevisiae.

Some pucciniomycete yeasts, in particular species of Sporidiobolus andSporobolomyces, produce aerially dispersed, asexual ballistoconidia.
