RESPIRATORY DEFICIENT MUTANTS OF XYLOSE-FERMENTING YEAST – OBTAINMENT AND FEATURES

Joanna Chmielewska, Ewelina Dziuba

 

ABSTRACT



The aim of the present research work was to obtain RD mutants of yeast Pichia stipitis, Yamadazyma stipitis, Candida shehatae and Pachysolen tannophilus and to estimate fermentative activity of mutants. Ethidium bromide and acriflavine were used as mutagens.

Key words: distilling, xylose-fermenting yeast, respiratory deficient mutants.
