125:. His research and development work was in the areas of stress research, aroma development and biotechnological implementation of the findings of microbial processes in juice, wine and wine-associated production areas such as cool climate. New Research fields to be added were genetically modified wine yeasts and risk accompanying research for their use as well as aroma development in wines through the use of microbial mixed cultures. The Geisenheim Yeast Finder supports practitioners in finding suitable yeast for their application. 20: 118:-binding metabolites were also in the foreground such as studies on origin and avoidance of microbially conditioned false aromas such as acetic acid, ester tone, buckwheat and lactic acid note. New drying technologies simplified the application of pure yeast cultures as dry instant powder and the breeding of cultures regained importance. 82:
Julius Wortmann succeeded Goethe as director on 1 April 1903 of the educational institution for wine, fruit and horticulture (the official name since 1901). He held his office as director for a total of 18 years, until 1921. As director, Wortmann led the work of his predecessor and father-in-law
