Abstract

AbstractHybrid strains able to ferment dextrins and to produce killer toxin were constructed by induced protoplast fusion of the brewing strain Saccharomyces uvarum P9 with two different strains of Saccharomyces sp.: the killer strain S. cerevisiae T 158 C and strain S. diastaticus (CCT 21‐49‐9‐a donor of dex genes). Hybrid strains decrease the amount of dextrins in fermented wort and are capable of eliminating heavy contaminations by sensitive strains of Saccharomyces sp.
