Abstract

Yeasts isolated from juice, fermenting juice and wines made from the varieties Bangalore Blue and Black Champa feil into 6 genera namely Kloeckera, Torulopsis, Candida, Rhodotorula, Cryptococcus and Saccharomyces.
Kloeckera apiculata and Torulopsis spp. were predominant during initial stages of fermentation. Torulopsis spp., Saccharomyces chevalieri and S. cerevisiae were present in the wine.
This is the first report on the isolation of Kloeckera apiculata, Saccharomyces chevalieri, Torulopsis spp., Rhodotorula rubra and Cryptococcus albidus var. albidus from grape musts from India.

Die Hefenflora südindischer Trauben und ihrer Weine

Die aus Traubensaft, gärendem Most und Wein der Rebsorten Bangalore Blue und Black Champa isolierten Hefen gehörten 6 Gattungen an, nämlich Kloeckera, Torulopsis, Candida, Rhodotorula, Cryptococcus und Saccharomyces. Während der frühen Gärungsphasen überwogen Kloeckera apiculata und Torulopsis spp.; im Wein waren Torulopsis spp., Saccharomyces chevalieri und S. cerevisiae vorhanden.
Kloeckera apiculata, Saccharomyces chevalieri, Torulopsis spp., Rhodotorula rubra und Cryptococcus albidus var. albidus wurden aus indischen Traubenmosten erstmals isoliert.
