Abstract

Partial genetic isolation of twoSaccharomyces bayanus varieties, 5.bayanus var.bayanus andS. bayanus var.uvarum comb, nov., was established by hybridological analysis. The hybrids of these two varieties were semisterile: their ascospores were characterized by low survival. Earlier, the new variety was described as a group of cryophilic wine yeast cultivars capable of fermenting melibiose.
