it’s a very disturbing paper if its findings are verified: not only SARS2 and RaTG13 have signs of genetic manipulation in yeast but SARS1 too.
WIV is known to have eyed yeast reverse genetic systems with interest (see attached WIV thesis

6. Yeast containing SARS-COV- 2
“The exciting thing about the yeast is that . . . it’s fast,” says expert Susan Weiss

7. Dr. Weiss's Magic Yeast
What this means is that instead of having to reconstruct the viral DNA first before introducing it into cells, you instead “put all these fragments in the yeast and it magically puts them together,” says Weiss.
8. TAR, YAC & DNA
transformation associated recombination (TAR)
yeast artificial chromosome (YAC)
Data Not Available (DNA) Don't believe me? Ask WIV!
9. Amazing Recombination Capacity
“The capacity to recombine things to a YAC by themselves is just amazing,” says Jores.
20. Revenge of Yeast
a WIV Thesis that @TheSeeker268 found recently is by Lei Ping Zeng (2017) & it mentions WIV's interest in yeast recombination methods
23. I am getting so sick of Yeast!
I will just dump yeast infected papers here for others to vomit over
