This PhD research explores Munkoyo, a traditional non-alcoholic fermented drink from Zambia. Munkoyo is made using wild plant roots and cooked grains, but the specific plants and their role in fermentation were not well understood. It identified three important plant species and studied the microbes in their roots that help with fermentation.
