Dekkera, Brettanomyces and Eeniella: electrophoretic comparison of enzymes and DNA-DNA homology.
The taxonomic status of various species of Dekkera, Brettanomyces and Eeniella was examined by electrophoretic comparison of enzymes, by deoxyribonucleic acid homology and by physiological characterization. These studies demonstrated that two teleomorphic Dekkera species, D. anomala and D. bruxellensis (synonym D. intermedia), and four anamorphic Brettanomyces species, B. anomalus (synonym B. claussenii), B. bruxellensis (synonym B. abstinens, B. custersii, B. intermedius, B. lambicus), B. custersianus and B. naardenensis, can be recognized. The anamorphic genus Eeniella remained as a separate, monotypic taxon.
