Abstract Corn (Zea mays L.) is a widely used raw material in the production of bioethanol. Creating new cultivars and applying appropriate fermentation techniques to increase production efficiency is still important for bioethanol producers. The purpose of the study presented here was to evaluate the correlation between differentiators of corn cultivars and fermentation methods in view of the efficiency of bioethanol production. The five selected cultivars differed by FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) number, type of hybrid cultivar, and type of grain. The tested samples generally showed significant (p
