Correct option is (a) Custers effect

For explanation I would say: Custers effect is the stimulation of glucose fermentation to ethanol. The stimulation occurs in the presence of oxygen. It is attributed to Brettanomyces to produce acetic acid from glucose. The fermentation of yeast is more rapid under aerobic conditions.
