Brewing and the taxonomy of brewer's yeast.
The review deals with the history, methods and current state of brewer's yeast taxonomy. An important factor in ensuring standard quality of finished beer is the use of pure yeast cultures in the production.Yeast used to be classified on the basis of its phenotype by the methods of traditional...
