An appraisal of the potential application of novel, flavour-producing yeast strains for production of fermented beverages.

YEASTDOC will apply advanced genetic tools to understand how different genes and alleles interact with each other and the environment to produce flavours and aromas in fermented and distilled beverages The potential for new hybrids and process conditions to be used in industry will be evaluated in conjunction with industrial partners Where appropriate plans for advancing the research to a higher TRL will be developed
