Abstract
A total of 13 yeast strains were isolated from 10 samples of sugar can e molasses obtained from sugar mills in Mexico; nine of them were kill er strains. There was at least one killer strain in every sample. The resulting species were the following: Torulaspora delbuuectii (2), Sch izosaccharomyces pombe (7), Cryptococcus albidus var. albidus (1) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (3). A new killer species is reported: Schizo saccharomyces pombe.
