Competition for Nitrogen Resources: An Explanation of the Effects of a Bioprotective Strain on the Growth of Genus in Oenology.

As a biological alternative to the antimicrobial action of SO, bioprotection has been proposed to winemakers as a means to limit or prevent grape musts microbial alteration. Competition for nitrogenous nutrients and for oxygen are often cited as potential explanations for the effectiveness of bioprotection. This study analyses the effect of a bioprotective strain on the growth of one strain and one strain.
