Table 4 Quantitative analysis of volatile compounds in the wines produced by the commercial (VL1) or the indigenous (Z622) yeast strains, on day 6

From: Comparative transcriptional analysis of flavour-biosynthetic genes of a native Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain fermenting in its natural must environment, vs. a commercial strain and correlation of the genes’ activities with the produced flavour compounds
