Researchers at the University of Colorado School of Medicine sequenced the genome of the Patagonian yeast and found it was a near-perfect match to the element used to brew lager.

"It proved to be distinct from every known wild species of yeast, but was 99.5 percent identical to the non-ale yeast portion of the lager genome," said Hittinger.

利布金德说，“我们已证实，这种新酵母不同于任何一种已知种类的野生酵母，但是与已知啤酒酵母之外的某种酿造成份的基因组有99.5%的同一性。”
