Abstract:
The subject matter of the present invention is novel yeast strains capable of metabolizing xylose and resistant to at least one fermentation inhibitor, and also to the method of obtaining same. The subject of the present invention is also the yeasts obtained by culturing said yeast strains and the use thereof for producing at least one fermentation product, preferably ethanol, in particular in a culture medium comprising xylose and at least one fermentation inhibitor.
