Selective Elucidation of Living Microbial Communities in Fermented Grains of Chinese Baijiu: Development of a Technique Integrating Propidium Monoazide Probe Pretreatment and Amplicon Sequencing. Foods 2024; 13:1782. [PMID: 38891011 PMCID: PMC11171695 DOI: 10.3390/foods13111782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
The fermentation process of Chinese Baijiu's fermented grains involves the intricate succession and metabolism of microbial communities, collectively shaping the Baijiu's quality. Understanding the composition and succession of these living microbial communities within fermented grains is crucial for comprehending fermentation and flavor formation mechanisms. However, conducting high-throughput analysis of living microbial communities within the complex microbial system of fermented grains poses significant challenges. Thus, this study addressed this challenge by devising a high-throughput analysis framework using light-flavor Baijiu as a model. This framework combined propidium monoazide (PMA) pretreatment technology with amplicon sequencing techniques. Optimal PMA treatment parameters, including a concentration of 50 μM and incubation in darkness for 5 min followed by an exposure incubation period of 5 min, were identified. Utilizing this protocol, viable microorganism biomass ranging from 8.71 × 106 to 1.47 × 108 copies/μL was successfully detected in fermented grain samples. Subsequent amplicon sequencing analysis revealed distinct microbial community structures between untreated and PMA-treated groups, with notable differences in relative abundance compositions, particularly in dominant species such as Lactobacillus, Bacillus, Pediococcus, Saccharomycopsis, Issatchenkia and Pichia, as identified by LEfSe analysis. The results of this study confirmed the efficacy of PMA-amplicon sequencing technology for analyzing living microbial communities in fermented grains and furnished a methodological framework for investigating living microbial communities in diverse traditional fermented foods. This technical framework holds considerable significance for advancing our understanding of the fermentation mechanisms intrinsic to traditional fermented foods.

Exploring the heterogeneity of community and function and correspondence of "species-enzymes" among three types of Daqu with different fermentation peak-temperature via high-throughput sequencing and metagenomics. Food Res Int 2024; 176:113805. [PMID: 38163713 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The enzyme activity of Daqu is an important prerequisite for defining it as a Baijiu starter. However, little is known about the functional species related to enzymes in different types of Daqu at the metagenomic level. Therefore, we analyzed the differences in enzymatic properties, microbial composition and metabolic function of three types of Daqu, namely high-, medium- and low-temperature Daqus (HTD, MTD and LTD), by combining chemical feature and multi-dimensional sequencing. The results showed that both liquefaction, saccharification, fermentation and esterification powers were remarkably weaker in HTD compared to MTD and LTD. Totally, 30 bacterial and 5 fungal phyla were identified and significant differences in community structures were also observed among samples, with Brevibacterium/Microascus, Pseudomonas, and Lactobacillus/Saccharomycopsis identified as biomarkers for HTD, MTD and LTD, respectively. Additionally, the importance of deterministic assembly in bacterial communities was proportional to the fermentation peak-temperature, while stochastic assembly dominated in fungal ones. Metagenomics analysis indicated eukaryota (>80 %, mainly Ascomycota) predominated in HTD and MTD while bacteria (54.3 %, mainly Actinobacteriota) were more abundant in LTD. However, the functional profiles and pathways of MTD and LTD were more similar, and the synthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates and amino acids were the crucial biological functions of all samples. Finally, the relationship between species and enzymes in different samples was constructed and the functional species in LTD and MTD were more diverse than HTD, which elucidated the functional species associated with enzyme activity in each type of Daqu. These results will greatly enrich our understanding of the core functional species in three typical Daqu, which provide available information for rational regulation of Daqu quality and the Baijiu fermentation.

Abstract
Baijiu, a type of liquor, is known for its pure fragrance and softness. Its unique style is attributed to the complex microbial flora and flavor precursors found in Daqu. In order to elaborate the nature of light flavor Daqu to guide the baijiu production, four Daqu samples (DQ1, DQ2, DQ3, and DQ4) from Shanxi province were analyzed to determine their microbial structure, physicochemical properties, and volatile flavors using high-throughout put seqencing and headspace solid-phase microextraction/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method in this study. The findings indicated that there were no noticeable variations in the water content and esterase activity of the four Daqu. However, the DQ2 sample had a higher acidity value and saccharifying enzyme activity, whereas DQ3 had the highest protease activity. The microbial community structure of the four Daqu was similar, with Lactobacillus and Streptophyta as the dominant bacteria, but the abundance of bacteria was different among the four Daqu. Issachenkia was a common dominant fungus genus in all samples. Rhizopus and Lichtemia were higher in DQ1 and DQ2, while Torulaspora, Aspergillus, and Candida were more prevalent in DQ4. A total of 27 volatile components were detected in the four Daqu, including esters, alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, and acids. DQ2 had the most volatile components and ethyl lactate and ethyl acetate were the most significant esters in the four samples. In conclusion, the physicochemical indicators of the four light flavor Daqu had distinct differences. There were significant variations in the abundance of bacteria and fungi, leading to differences in the volatile component content. These research findings can serve as a theoretical foundation for blending different light flavors Daqu and hold great significance in enhancing the quality of baijiu.

Abstract
Daqu is a solid-state fermentation and saccharification starter for the Chinese liquor baijou. During the daqu stage, amylolytic and proteolytic enzymes are produced by Bacillus and fungi. Bacillus spp. also produce lipopeptides with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activities but direct evidence for their impact on community assembly in daqu is lacking. This study aimed to study the interaction between Bacillus spp. and fungi in daqu models. The antifungal activity of surfactin, fengycin, and iturin A was initially assessed in vitro. Iturin A displayed the strongest antifungal activity (MIC = 10-50 mg/L). In situ antifungal activity of B. amyloliquefaciens and B. velezensis against molds was observed in a simple daqu model inoculated with single strains of Bacillus species. Formation of lipopeptides in situ was supported by quantification of mRNA encoding for enzymes for surfactin, fengycin, and iturin A biosynthesis. In situ antifungal activity of Bacillus species was also observed in a complex daqu model that was inoculated with 8 bacterial or fungal strains plus one of the three strains of Bacillus. A relationship of lipopeptides to in situ antifungal activity was further supported by detection of the lipopeptides by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Both results indicated that B velezensis FUA2155 had higher antifungal activity in the daqu model, and was the only strain that produced multiple iturin A congeners in situ. Taken together, this study provides evidence that production of lipopeptides by Bacillus species in daqu may impact community assembly and hence product quality.

Abstract
In this study, the microbial diversity in Tibetan flavor Daqu was analyzed based on single molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT). The volatile flavor compounds in Daqu were detected using the headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). In addition, the correlation between various microbes and volatile flavor compounds was explored. Our studies indicated that the dominant bacterial genera in Tibetan flavor Daqu were Oceanobacillus, Kroppenstedtia, Virgibacillus, Enterococcus, Pediococcus, Streptomyces, Saccharopolyspora, Leuconostoc, uncultured_bacterium_f_Lachnospiraceae and Lactobacillus. The dominant fungal genera were Wickerhamomyces, Monascus, Aspergillus and Rhizomucor. 101 volatile compounds were detected in the Daqu samples, including alcohols, acids, esters, aldehydes, hydrocarbons, ketones, ethers, aromatics and pyrazines, and 10 key flavor compounds were identified using the relative odor activity value (ROAV). The results of our correlation analysis showed that Enterococcus was mainly associated with the synthesis of aldehydes such as trans-2-octenal, and uncultured_bacterium_f_lachnospiraceae was associated with the synthesis of most aldehydes. This paper has systematically investigated the physicochemical indices, microbial community structure and flavor compounds of Tibetan flavor Daqu, which is helpful in gaining a deeper understanding of the characteristics of Tibetan flavor Daqu.

Abstract
The occurrence of plant diseases is closely associated with the imbalance of plant tissue microecological environment. The regulation of the phyllosphere microbial communities has become a new and alternative approach to the biological control of foliar diseases. In this study, Bacillus velezensis SYL-3 isolated from Luzhou exhibited an effective inhibitory effect against Alternaria alternata and tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). The analysis of phyllosphere microbiome by PacBio sequencing indicated that SYL-3 treatment significantly altered fungal and bacterial communities on the leaves of Nicotiana tabacum plants and reduced the disease index caused by A. alternata and TMV. Specifically, the abundance of P. seudomo, Sphingomonas, Massilia, and Cladosporium in the SYL-3 treatment group increased by 19.00, 9.49, 3.34, and 12.29%, respectively, while the abundances of Pantoea, Enterobacter, Sampaiozyma, and Rachicladosporium were reduced. Moreover, the abundance of beneficial bacteria, such as Pseudomonas and Sphingomonas, was negatively correlated with the disease indexes of A. alternata and TMV. The PICRUSt data also predicted the composition of functional genes, with significant differences being apparent between SYL-3 and the control treatment group. Further functional analysis of the microbiome also showed that SYL-3 may induce host disease resistance by motivating host defense-related pathways. These results collectively indicate that SYL-3 may suppress disease progression caused by A. alternata or TMV by improving the microbial community composition on tobacco leaves.

Abstract
Bacterial communities in high-temperature Daqu and fermented grains are important for brewing Jiang-flavor Baijiu such as Danquan Baijiu. Daqu is a saccharifying and fermenting agent, which has a significant impact on the flavor of Baijiu. However, bacterial communities in three different types of samples from the Danquan distillery (dqjq_ck, dqjqcp, and dqjp3) were still unclear, which limited further development of Danquan Baijiu. “dqjq_ck” and “dqjqcp” indicate high-temperature Daqu at days 45 and 135, respectively. “dqjp3” indicates fermented grains. In this study, the bacterial communities of three samples were analyzed by Illumina Miseq high-throughput sequencing. The bacterial communities of three samples primarily composed of thermophilic bacteria and bacteria with stress resistance. The most abundant species in dqjq_ck, dqjqcp, and dqjp3 were Comamonas, Bacillus, and unclassified Lactobacillales, respectively. The main bacteria included Bacillus, Comamonas, Myroides, Paenibacillus, Acetobacter, Kroppenstedtia, Staphylococcus, Saccharopolyspora, Planifilum, Lactobacillus, Acinetobacter, Oceanobacillus, Enterococcus, Thermoactinomyces, Lactococcus, Streptomyces, Saccharomonospora, Tepidimicrobium, Anaerosalibacter, unclassified_Lactobacillales, unclassified_Thermoactinomycetaceae_1, unclassified_Bacillaceae_2, unclassified_Bacillales, unclassified_Microbacteriaceae, unclassified_Rhodobacteraceae, unclassified_Actinopolysporineae, and unclassified_Flavobacteriaceae in three samples (percentage was more than 1% in one of three samples). In our study, the succession of microbiota in three samples representing three important stages of Danquan Baijiu brewing was revealed. This article lays a good foundation for understanding the fermentation mechanism and screening some excellent indigenous bacteria to improve the quality of Danquan Baijiu in future.

Abstract
A total of 296 strains of protease-producing bacteria were isolated and purified from medium-temperature Daqu produced by ZhangGong LaoJiu Wine Co. Ltd. After calculating the ratio of transparent ring diameter to colony diameter and measuring the protease activities, a strain of high-yield protease bacteria, called DW-7, was screened out with a protease activity of 99.54 U/mL. Through morphological observation, 16S rDNA sequence analysis, and physiological and biochemical tests, the isolated bacteria DW-7 was determined to be Bacillus velezensis. In addition, whole-genome sequencing (WGS), using PacBio and the Illumina platform, was performed. Gene annotation was then conducted using the Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), Non-Redundant Protein Sequence Database (NR), and Gene Ontology (GO) databases. The results showed that the genome of DW-7 was 3,942,829 bp long with a GC content of 46.45%. A total of 3,662 protein-encoding genes were predicted, with a total length of 3,402,822 bp. Additionally, 2,283; 2,796; and 2,127 genes were annotated in the COG, KEGG, and GO databases, respectively. A total of 196 high-yield protease genes were mainly enriched in the metabolism of alanine, aspartic acid, glutamate, glycine, serine, and threonine, as well as ABC transporter and transporter pathways.

Wu X, Wang Z, Zhang R, Xu T, Zhao J, Liu Y. Diversity of endophytic bacteria in hybrid maize seeds and Bacillus mojavensis J2416-7 may be capable of vertical transmission. Arch Microbiol 2022; 204:213. [PMID: 35305158 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-022-02824-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The diversity of endophytic bacteria in the progeny is related to the parental lines. In this study, the traditional separation method was used to study the dominant endophytic bacteria of the shared paternal line and its pollen, different maternal lines and their F1 progeny. And the results showed that the dominant endophytic bacteria in maize seeds and the pollen were Bacillus and Pantoea. The Bacillus diversity of the progeny JMC121 and JN728 were the same as both the paternal line and the maternal line, including Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus velezensis, Bacillus mojavensis, and Bacillus licheniformis. The Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus velezensis in JN828 were the same as both the paternal line and the maternal line, while Bacillus licheniformis was only the same as the paternal line. Through the RAPD molecular typing, there was the same strain of Bacillus mojavensis existed in the paternal line J2416, the pollen and the progeny JN728; this meant that the paternal line passed its dominant endophytic bacteria to the progeny through pollen in vertical transmission. This study showed that the dominant endophytic bacteria in maize seeds and the pollen were Bacillus, and the diversity of F1 progeny was related to both the paternal line and the maternal line.
