Summary
Enological yeast strains involved simultaneously during a fermentation can be identified through the analysis of their electrophoretic karyotype. The right assignment of yeasts to different strains has been checked by analysing the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), using a simple minipreparation protocol to obtain the template DNA for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
