100 different yeast colonies were isolated from spontaneously fermented kiwis, persimmons, apples, pears, watermelons, grapes, grape fruits, peachs, and plums, and selected yeast strains were used to produce kiwi-persimmon mixed wine (KPMW). Among the isolates, five representative strains exhibited tolerance to sucrose, alcohol, pH, and potassium metabisulfite when compared with the control yeast strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCCM 12615). All five yeast strains (Y4, Y10, Y28, Y78, and Y81) exhibited 99% 26S rDNA sequence similarity to S. cerevisiae. The pH, acidity, Brix, reducing sugar, alcohol, and organic acid contents were consistent in KPMW prepared from the S. cerevisiae KCCM 12615 and Y28 strains. KPMW made from the Y4, Y10, and Y28 strains exhibited lower quantities of free sugars than those of the KPMW made from the other yeast strains. The level of ethyl esters in KPMW prepared from the Y28 was higher than that in the other KPMWs. All strains, except for Y28, produced lower concentrations of sulfur and ketone compounds. Furthermore, the KPMW produced by the Y28 strains had total phenolic contents with 1.1 g/L, with DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of 57.06% and 55.62%, respectively, and a FRAP assay value of 0.72. Our results suggest that Y28 is a promising yeast strain for producing high-quality wines.

In 2019, as a subset study to discover indigenous yeast species in Korea, a total of 20 yeast species were isolated from soil samples collected in Pochoen-si. Among them, eight strains were unreported species. From the high 26S rRNA gene sequence similarity and formation of a robust phylogenetic clade with the closest species, it was determined that each strain belonged to independent and predefined yeast species. The 20 strains were assigned to the genera Aureobasidium (1 strain) and Meyerozyma (1 strain) of the phylum Ascomycota and Cystofilobasidium (2 strains), Filobasidium (1 strain), Naganishia (2 strains), Bullera (3 strains), Leucosporidium (9 strains) and Sampaiozyma (1 strain) of the phylum Basidiomycota. There is no official report of the following species in Korea: Leucosporidium creatinivorum (4 strains), Leucosporidium escuderoi(2 strains), Leucosporidium golubevii(1 strain) and Leucosporidium intermedium (2 strains). Basic biochemical characteristics, colony and cell morphology are also described in the species description section.

Temperature-sensitive yeast mutants were used to screen for cell cycle-related genes from Pleurotus eryngii genomic DNA. A mushroom genomic DNA library was established and each gene was screened for the ability to rescue seven Saccharomyces cerevisiae temperature-sensitive strains. Hundreds of yeast transformants were selected at restrictive temperatures over $30^{\circ}C$. Plasmids from the transformants that survived were isolated and transformed back into their host strains. The temperature sensitivity of the resulting transformants was tested from $30^{\circ}C$ to $37^{\circ}C$. Ten DNA fragments from P. eryngii were able to rescue yeast temperature-sensitive strains, and their DNA sequences were determined.

Transformed, hybrid strains of the yeast Saccharomyces capable of simultaneous secretion of both glucoamylase and ${\alpha}-amylase$ have been produced. These strains can carry out direct, one-step assimilation of starch with conversion efficiency greater than 93% during a 5 day growth period. One of the transformants converts 92.8% of available starch into reducing sugars in only 2 days. Glucoamylase secretion by these strains results from expression of one or more chromosomal STA genes derived from Saccharomyces diastaticus. The strains were transformed by a plasmid(pMS12) containing mouse salivary ${\alpha}-amylase$ cDNA in an expression vector containing yeast alcohol dehydrogenase promoter and a segment of yeast $2{\mu}$ plasmid. The major starch hydrolysis product produced by crude amylases found in culture broths is glucose, indicating that ${\alpha}-amylase$ and glucoamylase act cooperatively.

참다래로 만든 'Hayward' 와인 제조에 적합한 효모 선발을 위해서 3종의 효모에 의한 발효과정에서의 물리화학적 특성 변화를 조사 분석하였다. 사용된 효모는 Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gervin No.5 strain (GVN), S. bayanus Lavin strain EC1118 (EC1118), 그리고 S. cerevisiae Red star Davis No.796 (No.796)은 와인 발효에 가장 적합하여 상업적으로 이용되고 있는 효모이다. 이 세 효모에 의해 발효된 샘플의 당도 함량은 비슷하게 감소하였으나, 알코올 생산량만 발효 첫 주에 큰 차이가 있었다. 효모중 GVN이 13.8%로 알콜농도가 가장 높았고, 반면에 No.796과 EC1118은 각각13.0%와 12.5%로 상대적으로 알콜함량이 낮았다. 관능평가에서 GVN은 높은 산과 높은 알콜함량을 가지고 있고, 강한 풍미와 쓴맛을 가진 것으로 평가되었다. No.796은 GVN과 유사하지만 낮은 알콜함량과 함께 단맛이 있었다. EC1118은 높은 풍미, 단맛과 낮은 알콜함량으로 부드러운 맛으로 평가되었다. EC1118에 의해 발효된 와인 의 총페놀과 항산화 활성은 다른 효모보다 높았다. 따라서 본 연구에서EC1118이 최적의 효모로 선발되었다. 다른 2종의 효모를 사용한 참다래 발효 와인은 각각 다른 품질 특성을 나타내었다. EC1118효모는 참다래 발효에 가장 바람직한 특성을 가지고 있었다. 이러한 특성은 주로 총페놀과 항산화 활성과 같은 건강기능성과 높은 관능적 기호도를 가지고 있었다.

This study investigated the effects of different commercial yeast strains on the characteristics of peach wine. Peach fruit was inoculated with Fermivin, K1-V1116, EC-1118, D-47 and AR2. Peach wines fermented with the D-47, K1-V1116, and AR2 strains showed faster fermentation than wines fermented with the other strains. Wine fermented with EC-1118 had the lowest titratable acidity and highest pH. The ethanol content of wines fermented with different commercial yeast strains was in the range of 13~14%. In sensory evaluation, the wine made with EC-1118 showed the highest overall scores in color and acceptability.

The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify wild yeasts from soil collected in Daegu City and Cheongyang County, Republic of Korea. Among 11 strains isolated in this study, nine strains were previously reported and two strains were unreported in Republic of Korea. To identify wild yeast strains, pairwise sequence comparisons of the D1/D2 region of the 26S rRNA gene sequence were done using Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST). The cell morphologies were observed by phase contrast microscope and assimilation test are done using API 20C AUX kit. All strains were assigned to the phylum Basidiomycota. Of the two unrecorded yeast strains, CY-9-10C belongs to the genus Mrakia (family Mrakiaceae, order Cystofilobasidiales, class Tremellomycetes) and PG3-4-10C belongs to the genus Slooffia (family Chrysozymaceae, order Microbotryomycetes incertae sedis, class Microbotryomycetes). Both strains had oval-shaped and polar budding cells. This research described the morphological and biochemical properties of the two unreported yeast species that had not officially reported in Korea.

Effect of some nutrients on the growth of 3 yeast strains in the pulp mill waste liquor was determined during an attempt to lower the BOD content of the waste liquor and to produce the fodder yeast. The strains applied were Debaryomyces castelli Capriotti, D.phoffi Capriotti, and Cryptococcus luteolus (Saito)Skinner. The necessity of the addition of 0.2% ${NH_4}2SO_4$ 0.5% yeast extract, 0.2% $NH_2SO_4$, and 0.1% $MgSO_4$.$7H_2$O for the best growth of all three strains in the waste liquor was ascertained as a result. After 3-day treatment of the yeast cells on the waste liquor, the BOD content was lowered by about 60-70%. Harvested yeast cells contained ca. 75% water with 1.5-3% lipid, 40-46% protein, 50% carbohydrate and 3-5% ash on the dry weight basis, indicating the possibility of being utilized as the fodder yeast.

There are many yeast strains have been discovered for industrial usage in global scale. In the point of view for the alcoholic fermentation performance and producing alcoholic beverage products, recently many countries have known about the importance of microorganisms as a valuable resource. Discovered with well performed yeasts have potential industrial application in diverse ways such as foods, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceutical functions, and so on. In Korea, the yeast research has not been sufficiently performed especially for distilled spirits industry. As a result, not so little manufacturers use exotic yeasts from overseas even included the expensive royalties. Besides of those, to produce distilled spirits, many manufacturers do not use specialized yeast for distilled spirits. Distiller's characterized yeasts such as whisky, brandy, vodka, Japanese shochu and awamori, are all well-known industrialized. For decades, the distillers, except us, have selected, developed, and practised yeasts in accordance with distilled spirits characters. This study is about selection and industrial application of yeasts for the Korean pot distilled spirits. Finally 7 yeast strains were selected among over 1,000 yeasts from the traditional Nuruks, through the essential related tests based on brewing and distilling science. The selected yeasts show the appropriate characteristics of distilled spirits. The result of this study could help our distilled spirits industry be activated and stand independent from the exotic microbes.
