Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein are yeast strains and derivatives thereof, and compositions comprising yeast strains for ethanol production. The present disclosure also relates to methods of producing ethanol from biomass using the yeast strains and compositions. In particular, the yeast strains produce lower glycerol and higher ethanol than currently used strains and products in ethanol production processes, and have higher temperature tolerance and higher fermentation rates. 本文公开了酵母菌株及其衍生物,以及包含用于乙醇生产的酵母菌株的组合物。本公开还涉及使用酵母菌株和组合物从生物质生产乙醇的方法。特别是,酵母菌株比目前用于乙醇生产过程的菌株和产品产生更低的甘油和更高的乙醇,并且具有更高的温度耐受性和更高的发酵速率。
