[PMID: 38823877 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114497] [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: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
The spontaneous Baijiu fermentation system harbors a complex microbiome that is highly dynamic in time and space and varies depending on the Jiuqu starters and environmental factors. The intricate microbiota presents in the fermentation environment is responsible for carrying out various reactions. These reactions necessitate the interaction among the core microbes to influence the community function, ultimately shaping the distinct Baijiu styles through the process of spontaneous fermentation. Numerous studies have been conducted to enhance our understanding of the diversity, succession, and function of microbial communities with the aim of improving fermentation manipulation. However, a comprehensive and critical assessment of the core microbes and their interaction remains one of the significant challenges in the Baijiu fermentation industry. This paper focuses on the fermentation properties of core microbes. We discuss the state of the art of microbial traceability, highlighting the crucial role of environmental and starter microbiota in the Baijiu brewing microbiome. Also, we discuss the various interactions between microbes in the Baijiu production system and propose a potential conceptual framework that involves constructing predictive network models to simplify and quantify microbial interactions using co-culture models. This approach offers effective strategies for understanding the core microbes and their interactions, thus beneficial for the management of microbiota and the regulation of interactions in Baijiu fermentation processes.

Heterogenetic mechanism in high-temperature Daqu fermentation by traditional craft and mechanical craft: From microbial assembly patterns to metabolism phenotypes. Food Res Int 2024; 187:114327. [PMID: 38763631 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114327] [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: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 03/31/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
The mechanical process has a widely usage in large-scale high-temperature Daqu (HTD) enterprises, however, the quality of the mechanical HTD is gapped with the HTD by traditional process. Currently, the understanding of the mechanism behind this phenomenon is still over-constrained. To this end, the discrepancies in fermentation parameters, enzymatic characteristics, microbial assembly and succession patterns, metabolic phenotypes were compared between traditional HTD and mechanical HTD in this paper. The results showed that mechanical process altered the temperature ramping procedure, resulting in a delayed appearance of the peak temperature. This alteration shifted the assembly pattern of the initial bacterial community from determinism to stochasticity, while having no impact on the stochastic assembly pattern of the fungal community. Concurrently, mechanical pressing impeded the accumulation of arginase, tetramethylpyrazine, trimethylpyrazine, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, and butyric acid, as the target dissimilarities in metabolism between traditional HTD and mechanical HTD. Pearson correlation analysis combined with the functional prediction further demonstrated that Bacillus, Virgibacillus, Oceanobacillus, Kroppenstedtia, Lactobacillus, and Monascus were mainly contributors to metabolic variances. The Redundancy analysis (RDA) of fermented environmental factors on functional ASVs indicated that high temperature, high acid and low moisture were key positive drivers on the microbial metabolism for the characteristic flavor in HTD. Based on these results, heterogeneous mechanisms between traditional HTD and mechanical HTD were explored, and controllable metabolism targets were as possible strategies to improve the quality of mechanical HTD.

Abstract
Different spatial positions lead to inconsistent fermentation effects and flavors, however, the spatial heterogeneity of Qingxiangxing (QXX) Baijiu remains unknown. We investigated the microbes, flavors, and physicochemical properties of different layers in fermented grains of QXX Baijiu using Illumina HiSeq sequencing, two-dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC × GC-MS) and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass (UHPLC-MS). A total of 79 volatiles, 1596 metabolites, 50 bacterial genera, and 52 fungal genera were identified. The contents distribution followed the order: upper layer > bottom layer > middle layer. Organic acids and derivatives were the main differential metabolites across the three layers. Starch, pH, and reducing sugar levels increased from the upper to bottom layer. Saccharomyces and Lactobacillus were dominant microbes. Pediococcus, the biomarker of upper layer, showed positive correlations with formic acid, ethyl lactate, acetic acid, ethyl linoleate, and ethyl oleate. These findings deepen our understanding of the fermentation and flavor formation mechanisms of QXX Baijiu.

Abstract
Workshop with different fermentation years plays an essential role in the yield and quality of Baijiu. In actual production, the quality of base Baijiu in newly built workshop is inferior to the older one. In this study, the microbiota of workshop environment and fermentation process from two workshops namely N (ferment 2 years) and O (ferment 20 years) and flavor compounds were studied during Xiasha round. Results showed workshop O accumulated more environmental microorganisms and fungi including P. kudriavzevii, Wickerhamomyces anomalus and Saccharomyces sp mainly came from ground. Yeasts including Pichia, Cyberlindnera, Wickerhamomyces and Candida were responsible for flavor substances formation in O while Saccharopolyspora was in N. This study for the first time explored the reasons for the brewing differences among N and O workshop from perspectives of workshop environment, microbial community and flavor substances, providing new ideas for guiding production as well as improvement of Baijiu quality.

Abstract
The traditional Chinese Baijiu brewing process utilizes natural inoculation and open fermentation. The microbial composition and abundance in the microecology of Baijiu brewing often exhibit unstable characteristics, which directly results in fluctuations in Baijiu quality. The microbiota plays a crucial role in determining the quality of Baijiu. Analyzing the driving effect of technology and raw materials on microorganisms. Elucidating the source of core microorganisms and interactions between microorganisms, and finally utilizing single or multiple microorganisms to regulate and intensify the Baijiu fermentation process is an important way to achieve high efficiency and stability in the production of Baijiu. This paper provides a systematic review of the composition and sources of microbiota at different brewing stages. It also analyzes the relationship between raw materials, brewing processes, and brewing microbiota, as well as the steps involved in the implementation of brewing microbiota regulation strategies. In addition, this paper considers the feasibility of using Baijiu flavor as a guide for Baijiu brewing regulation by synthesizing the microbiota, and the challenges involved. This paper is a guide for flavor regulation and quality assurance of Baijiu and also suggests new research directions for regulatory strategies for other fermented foods.

Abstract
Postharvest fruit rot caused by pathogens is a serious problem in the pear industry. This study investigated the fungal diversity and main pathogens and identified a new pathogen in the stored 'Huangguan' pear (Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd.), the dominant pear variety in northern China. We sampled 20 refrigeration houses from five main producing regions in Hebei Province and used Illumina sequencing technology to detect the fungal composition. Alternaria (56.3%) was the most abundant fungus, followed by Penicillium (9.2%) and Monilinia (6.2%). We also isolated and identified nine strains of Alternaria and four strains of Penicillium. Moreover, we observed a new postharvest fruit disease in 'Huangguan' pear caused by Stemphylium eturmiunum, which was confirmed by phylogenetic analysis by combining the sequences of three conserved genes, including internal transcribed spacer, gapdh, and calmodulin. This study marks the first documentation of S. eturmiunum causing fruit rot in 'Huangguan' pears, offering valuable insights for identifying and controlling this newly identified postharvest disease.

Abstract
To determine the unique contribution of the bioturbation to the properties of the medium-temperature Daqu, we investigated the differences in microbiota and metabolic composition using the meta-omics approach. Bioturbation increased the amounts of microbial specie and influenced the contribution of the core microbiota to the metabolome. Specifically, inoculated synthetic microbiota (MQB) enhanced the abundance of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, while Bacillus licheniformis (MQH) increased the abundance of the two Aspergillus species and four species level of lactic acid bacteria. These changes of the microbial profiles significantly increased the potentials of carbohydrate metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and biosynthesis of ester compounds. Consequently, both patterns significantly increased the content of volatile compounds and free amino acids, which were 27.61% and 21.57% (MQB), as well as 15.14% and 17.83% (MQH), respectively. In addition, the contents of lactic acid in MQB and MQH decreased by 65.42% and 42.99%, respectively, closely related to the up- or down-regulation of the expression of their corresponding functional enzyme genes. These results suggested that bioturbation drove the assembly of the core microbiota, rather than becoming critical functional species. Overall, our study provides new insights into the functional role of exogenous isolates in the Daqu microecosystem.

Insight investigation into the response pattern of microbial assembly succession and volatile profiles during the brewing of sauce-flavor baijiu based on bioaugmentation.

[PMID: 38272723 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiosc.2023.12.014] [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: 08/30/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
To improve the flavor profile and sensory quality of baijiu, the utilization of bioaugmented fermentation inoculated with functional microbiota normally serves as an effective method for directional regulation during the baijiu fermentation process. In this study, a systematic analysis of the succession patterns and volatile flavor compound profiles of microbial communities was carried out by high-throughput sequencing and solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, respectively. The results demonstrated that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae YS222-related bioaugmentation clearly altered the microbial composition, particularly the assembly of bacteria, and promoted the quantity of the most volatile flavoring compounds, including alcohols, esters, and pyrazines. In addition, the correlation analysis showed that Saccharomyces and Lactobacillus in the augmented group were the main biomarkers associated with the dynamics of microbial community and greatly contributed to the brewing of sauce-flavor baijiu, which congruent with the outcomes of the enrichment analysis of integrated metabolic pathway. Thus, this work is beneficial for promoting the quality of baijiu and will serve as a useful reference for clarifying the possible mechanism of augmented fermentation on flavor development.

Li W, Zhang H, Wang R, Zhang C, Li X. Temporal Profile of the Microbial Community and Volatile Compounds in the Third-Round Fermentation of Sauce-Flavor baijiu in the Beijing Region. Foods 2024; 13:670. [PMID: 38472783 DOI: 10.3390/foods13050670] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Sauce-flavor baijiu produced in the Beijing and Guizhou regions has regional characteristic flavors, but the differences in flavor compounds and reasons for their formation remain unclear. The sauce-flavor baijiu brewing process involves several rounds of fermentation. In this study, we investigated the temporal distribution of microbial communities and flavor substances during the third round of sauce-flavor baijiu fermentation in the Beijing region, and we then compared and analyzed the differences of flavor substances and microorganisms in the fermented grains of sauce-flavor baijiu in the Beijing and Guizhou regions. It was found that 10 bacterial genera and 10 fungal genera were dominant in the fermented grains. The acidity of the fermented grains had a significant driving effect on the microbial community succession. A total of 81 volatile compounds were identified and quantified in the fermented grains, of which esters and alcohols were relatively abundant. The differences in 30 microbial community compositions and their resulting differences in terms of the fermentation parameters of fermented grains are responsible for the differences in the profiles of flavor compounds between sauce-flavor baijiu produced in the Beijing and Guizhou regions.

Airborne microorganisms and key environmental factors shaping their community patterns in the core production area of the Maotai-flavor Baijiu. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 912:169010. [PMID: 38040348 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.169010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
Airborne microorganisms are important parts of the Moutai-flavor Baijiu brewing microbial community, which directly affects the quality of Baijiu. However, environmental factors usually shape airborne microbiomes in different distilleries, even in the different production areas of the same distillery. Unfortunately, current understanding of environmental factors shaping airborne microbiomes in distilleries is very limited. To bridge this gap, we compared airborne microbiomes in the Moutai-flavor Baijiu core production areas of different distilleries in the Chishui River Basin and systematically investigated the key environmental factors that shape the airborne microbiomes. The top abundant bacterial communities are mainly affiliated to the phyla Actinobacteriota, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteri, whereas Ascomycota and Basidiomycota are the predominant fungal communities. The Random Forest analysis indicated that the biomarkers in three distilleries are Saccharomonospora and Bacillus, Thermoactinomyces, Oceanobacillus, and Methylobacterium, which are the core functional flora contributing to the production of Daqu. The correlation and network analyses showed that the distillery age and environmental temperature have a strong regulatory effect on airborne microbiomes, suggesting that the fermentation environment has a domesticating effect on air microbiomes. Our findings will greatly help us understand the relationship between airborne microbiomes and environmental factors in distilleries and support the production of the high-quality Moutai-flavor Baijiu.

Rapid detection of six Oceanobacillus species in Daqu starter using single-cell Raman spectroscopy combined with machine learning. Microb Biotechnol 2024; 17:e14416. [PMID: 38381051 PMCID: PMC10880574 DOI: 10.1111/1751-7915.14416] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Many traditional fermented foods and beverages industries around the world request the addition of multi-species starter cultures. However, the microbial community in starter cultures is subject to fluctuations due to their exposure to an open environment during fermentation. A rapid detection approach to identify the microbial composition of starter culture is essential to ensure the quality of the final products. Here, we applied single-cell Raman spectroscopy (SCRS) combined with machine learning to monitor Oceanobacillus species in Daqu starter, which plays crucial roles in the process of Chinese baijiu. First, a total of six Oceanobacillus species (O. caeni, O. kimchii, O. iheyensis, O. sojae, O. oncorhynchi subsp. Oncorhynchi and O. profundus) were detected in 44 Daqu samples by amplicon sequencing and isolated by pure culture. Then, we created a reference database of these Oceanobacillus strains which correlated their taxonomic data and single-cell Raman spectra (SCRS). Based on the SCRS dataset, five machine-learning algorithms were used to classify Oceanobacillus strains, among which support vector machine (SVM) showed the highest rate of accuracy. For validation of SVM-based model, we employed a synthetic microbial community composed of varying proportions of Oceanobacillus species and demonstrated a remarkable accuracy, with a mean error was less than 1% between the predicted result and the expected value. The relative abundance of six different Oceanobacillus species during Daqu fermentation was predicted within 60 min using this method, and the reliability of the method was proved by correlating the Raman spectrum with the amplicon sequencing profiles by partial least squares regression. Our study provides a rapid, non-destructive and label-free approach for rapid identification of Oceanobacillus species in Daqu starter culture, contributing to real-time monitoring of fermentation process and ensuring high-quality products.

Comparison of the Correlations of Microbial Community and Volatile Compounds between Pit-Mud and Fermented Grains of Compound-Flavor Baijiu. Foods 2024; 13:203.

Abstract
The microbial composition and volatile components of fermented grains (FG) and pit mud (PM) are crucial for the quality and flavor of compound-flavor baijiu (CFB). The physicochemical indices, culturable microorganisms, microbial communities, and volatile components of FG and PM were analyzed and correlated in our research. Considering FG and PM, amplicon sequencing was used to analyze the microbial community and the volatile components were detected by headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME). For FG, redundancy analysis and correlation perfume Circos were used to clarify the correlations between the dominant microbial community and volatile components. The results showed that Aspergillus, Pichia, and Rhizopus were the main fungal microflora in FG and PM, whereas Lactobacillus and Bacillus were the dominant bacteria in FG, and Methanosarcina and Clostridium sensu stricto 12 were the dominant bacteria in the PM. The microbial community and volatile compounds in the CB sampled from the bottom layers of the FG were greatly affected by those in the PM. There were 32 common volatile components in CB and PM. For FG, most of the volatile components were highly correlated with Lactobacillus, Bacillus, Aspergillus, Pichia, and Monascus, which includes alcohols, acids and esters. This study reveals correlations between microbial composition, volatile components, and the interplay of FG and PM, which are conducive to optimizing the fermentation process and improving the quality of CFB base.

Daqu and environmental microbiota regulate fatty acid biosynthesis via driving the core microbiota in soy sauce aroma type liquor fermentation. Int J Food Microbiol 2024; 408:110423.

Abstract
Fatty acids are considered as important compounds for the aroma and taste of Chinese liquor. Revealing the core microbiota related with fatty acid biosynthesis and how they are influenced are essential to control fatty acids in spontaneous Chinese liquor fermentation. Herein, we identified the core microbiota related with fatty acid biosynthesis based on their microbial abundance, abundance and expression level of genes related with fatty acid biosynthesis, using high-throughput amplicon sequencing, metagenomic and metatranscriptomic analysis, respectively. Acetilactobacillus, Kroppenstedtia, Saccharomyces, Paecilomyces and Pichia were identified as the core microbiota (the criteria for identifying core microbiota: average relative abundance ≥1 %, average abundance of related genes >400 fragments per kilobase of transcript per million fragments mapped [FPKM], and expression level of related genes >1000 FPKM) related with fatty acid biosynthesis. SourceTracker analysis showed that Daqu mainly provided Kroppenstedtia (34.01 %) and Acetilactobacillus (3.31 %). Ground mainly provided Pichia (47.47 %), Saccharomyces (16.17 %) and Paecilomyces (8.55 %). Structural equation model revealed that Daqu and environmental microbiota drove the core microbiota (P < 0.05), and the core microbiota drove the biosynthesis of fatty acids (P < 0.05). This work revealed the important role of Daqu and environmental microbiota in fatty acid biosynthesis in liquor fermentation. It would benefit controlling fatty acids in liquor fermentation, and improving the liquor quality.

Abstract
Sauce-flavor baijiu (SFB) is a traditional Chinese distilled liquor crafted through a distinctive brewing process, involving seven rounds of stack fermentation (SF) and pit fermentation (PF). To date, there remains a knowledge gap regarding the microbial succession and flavor throughout all rounds of SFB with distinctive northern characteristics. Through LEfSe analysis, Saccharopolyspora, Virgibacillus, Thermoascus and Thermomyces, and Lactobacillus and Issatchenkia were found to be the most differentially representative genera in SF and PF, respectively. A total of 93 volatile flavor compounds were found in base baijius through the gas-chromatography mass spectrometry. Moreover, 29 volatile flavor substances with significant difference in base baijius of different rounds were revealed using the OPLS-DA model and VIP values and Spearman correlation analysis shows that bacteria have a greater impact on differential flavor compounds than fungi. This study provides a new perspective and insight into the brewing of northern SFB.

Abstract
Daqu is of great significance to the brewing process of Baijiu, and there are variations in the light-flavor Baijiu Daqu in different regions. However, few studies have been conducted on light-flavor Daqu from the north and south regions of China. In this study, the physicochemical indices, volatile flavor components, and microbial community structure of two types of Daqu from the north and south regions of China were comparatively analyzed. The study findings reveal that Daqu originating from the southern region of China (HB) exhibits superior moisture content, acidity, starch content, and saccharification power. In contrast, Daqu from the northern region of China (SX) displays higher fermentation, esterification, and liquefaction power. The analysis of the microbial community structure revealed that HB was dominated by Bacillus, Kroppenstedtia, Saccharomycopsis, and Thermoascus, while SX was dominated by Bacillus, Prevotella, and Saccharomycopsis. The analysis detected a total of 47 volatile components in both HB Daqu and SX Daqu. The volatile components of pyrazine were significantly more abundant in HB Daqu than in SX Daqu, while alcohol compounds were more prominent in SX Daqu than in HB Daqu. In addition, the RDA analysis established a correlation between dominant microorganisms and volatile components. Cyanobacteria, Fusobacteriota, Ascomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Basidiomycota, and Mucormyce exhibited positive correlations with a significant proportion of the key volatile compounds. This study establishes a scientific foundation for improving the quality of light-flavor Daqu liquor in different regions of China.

Abstract
Lactic acid is the primary inhibitor of the growth and ethanol production of yeasts in Baijiu fermentation. Certain amino acids have been found to be related to stress tolerance in yeasts. This study explored the effect of lactic acid stress on the ethanol-producing yeast Zygosaccharomyces bailii and evaluated the ability of serine to increase the lactic acid tolerance of Z. bailii in vitro. Serine significantly improved Z. bailii viability by 16.5% and ethanol production by 226.6% under lactic acid stress. Under lactic acid stress, serine supplementation led to an increase of 41.9% in cell wall integrity, 31.9% in cell membrane integrity, 296.6% in intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and 18.4% in the mitochondrial membrane potential. Finally, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) indicated that serine supplementation maintained the cell shape and reduced cell leakage. This study revealed a novel lactic acid tolerance mechanism of core functional yeasts during Jiang-flavor Baijiu fermentation.

Wu X, Zhang Y, Zhang B, Tian H, Liang Y, Dang H, Zhao Y. Dynamic Changes in Microbial Communities, Physicochemical Properties, and Flavor of Kombucha Made from Fu-Brick Tea. Foods 2023; 12:4242. [PMID: 38231678 DOI: 10.3390/foods12234242] [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: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
In this study, Fu-brick tea (FBT) was used for kombucha preparation. The succession of microbial community structures, changes in physicochemical properties, and the volatiles were investigated during the kombucha fermentation. The sequencing analysis showed that Komagataeibacter was the most predominant bacterium. Aspergillus and Zygosaccharomyces were the dominant fungi before fermentation whereas Zygosaccharomyces and Derkella were the dominant fungi after 3 days of fermentation. The physicochemical analysis revealed that acetic acid, glucuronic acid, and polyphenols increased by 10.22 g/L, 0.08 g/L, and 177.40 mg/L, respectively, by the end of fermentation. The GC-MS analysis showed that a total of 49 volatile compounds were detected during the fermentation. Moreover, there were great differences in volatile components among the kombucha samples with different fermentation times. Furthermore, the relevance among microbial community and volatile compounds was evaluated through correlation network analysis. The results suggested that Komagataeibacter, Aspergillus, Zygosaccharomyces, and Dekkera were closely related to the main volatile compounds of FBT kombucha. The results in this study may provide deep understanding for constructing the microbiota and improving the quality of FBT kombucha.

Abstract
Introduction While the variation in physicochemical parameters, microbial communities, metabolism, composition, and the proportion of volatile components in fermented grains (FG) affect final Baijiu quality, their complex interactions during the ultra-long fermentation of compound-flavor Baijiu (CFB) are still poorly understood. Methods In this study, amplicon sequencing was used to analyze the microbial community, and headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) was used to analyze the volatile components in FG during ultra-long fermentation of CFB. The relationships between the dominant microbial communities, physicochemical parameters, and volatile components were analyzed using redundancy analysis and network analysis. Results During ultra-long fermentation, bacterial diversity was initially higher than during the mid and late stages. Fungal diversity in the mid stages was higher than that initially and later in the process. A total of 88 volatile components, including six alcohols, 43 esters, eight aldehydes and ketones, 13 acids, and 18 other compounds were detected in FG. Starch and reducing sugars in FG strongly affected the composition and function of bacterial and fungal communities. However, acidity had little effect on the composition and function of the bacterial flora. Lactobacillus, Bacillus, Weissella, and Pichia were the core microbial genera involved in metabolizing the volatile components of FG. Discussion We provide insights into the relationships and influences among the dominant microbial communities, physicochemical parameters, and volatile components during ultra-long fermentation of CFB. These insights help clarify the fermentation mechanisms of solid-state fermentation Baijiu (SFB) and control and improve the aroma quality of CFB.

The marula and elephant intoxication myth: assessing the biodiversity of fermenting yeasts associated with marula fruits ( Sclerocarya birrea). FEMS MICROBES 2023; 4:xtad018.

Abstract
The inebriation of wild African elephants from eating the ripened and rotting fruit of the marula tree is a persistent myth in Southern Africa. However, the yeasts responsible for alcoholic fermentation to intoxicate the elephants remain poorly documented. In this study, we considered Botswana, a country with the world's largest population of wild elephants, and where the marula tree is indigenous, abundant and protected, to assess the occurrence and biodiversity of yeasts with a potential to ferment and subsequently inebriate the wild elephants. We collected marula fruits from over a stretch of 800 km in Botswana and isolated 106 yeast strains representing 24 yeast species. Over 93% of these isolates, typically known to ferment simple sugars and produce ethanol comprising of high ethanol producers belonging to Saccharomyces, Brettanomyces, and Pichia, and intermediate ethanol producers Wickerhamomyces, Zygotorulaspora, Candida, Hanseniaspora, and Kluyveromyces. Fermentation of marula juice revealed convincing fermentative and aromatic bouquet credentials to suggest the potential to influence foraging behaviour and inebriate elephants in nature. There is insufficient evidence to refute the aforementioned myth. This work serves as the first work towards understanding the biodiversity marula associated yeasts to debunk the myth or approve the facts.

Abstract
The microbial ecosystem of fermented food is greatly disturbed by human activities.Jiuyao is important saccharification starter for brewing huangjiu. The interaction between environmental factors and microorganisms significantly affected the microbial community structure at different stages of Jiuyao manufacturing. This study combined environmental factor analysis and high-throughput sequencing technology to comprehensively analyze the specific changes of microbial community and environmental factors in each fermentation stage of Jiuyao production and their correlation. The results showed that the activities of liquefaction enzyme, glycosylation enzyme and acid protease reached the highest value on the 8 th day (192 h) after the beginning of fermentation, and the cellulase activity reached the highest value at the end of fermentation. Pediococcus(37.5 %-58.2 %), Weissella(9.2 %-27.0 %) and Pelomonas(0.1 %-12.1 %) were the main microbial genera in the genus bacteria, and Saccharomycopsis(37.1 %-52.0 %), Rhizopus(12.5 %-31.0 %) and Saccharomyces(4.0 %-20.5 %) were the main microbial genera in the genus fungi. The results of correlation analysis showed that the microbial communities in Jiuyao were closely related to environmental factors. Most microbial communities were positively correlated with temperature, but negatively correlated with ambient humidity, CO2 concentration, acidity and water content of Jiuyao. In addition, the transcription levels of enzymes related to microbial glucose metabolism in Jiuyao were higher in the late stage of Jiuyao fermentation. Interestingly, these enzymes had high transcription levels in fungi such as Saccharomycopsis, Rhizopus and Saccharomyces, as well as in bacteria such as Pediococcus and Lactobacillus. This study provides a reference for revealing the succession rule of microbial community structure caused by environmental factors during the preparation of Jiuyao in Shaoxing Huangjiu.

Abstract
The stacking fermentation process plays a vital role in the production of sauce-flavour baijiu. The aim of this paper is to elucidate the effects of environmental variables on the fungal communities of different layers of fermented grains (zaopei) during the sixth round of stacking and the changes in volatile flavour substances during this process. The composition of the fungal communities in different layers during the stacking fermentation process was analysed. Principal coordinate analysis (pCoA) showed that the dominant fungal communities in different layers differed significantly with the stacking fermentation process. The dominant fungal genera were Thermoascus, Thermomyces and Issatchenkia. The total content of flavouring substances in the surface layer of zaopei were higher, but the types of flavouring substances were less than in the inner layer. The relationship between temperature, moisture content, acidity, starch content and reducing sugar content and microbial community was analysed by Redundancy analysis. The results showed that the correlation between microbial communities and physicochemical indexes in different layers of zaopei varied. The core fungal genera in the surface layer were mainly influenced by acidity, and the microorganisms in the inner layer were more strongly correlated with temperature. Spearman correlation coefficient revealed the correlation between fungal community and volatile flavour substances, and the results showed that microorganisms in different layers of zaopei have different correlations with flavour substances. This study contributes to the understanding of the evolution of different layers fungal communities during the stacking of sauce-flavour baijiu and their relationship with volatile aroma substances.

Abstract
Light-flavor Baijiu fermentation is a typical spontaneous solid-state fermentation process fueled by a variety of microorganisms. Mechanized processes have been increasingly employed in Baijiu production to replace traditional manual operation processes, however, the microbiological and physicochemical dynamics in mechanized processes remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated the microbial community succession and flavor compound formation during a whole mechanized fermentation process of light-flavor Baijiu using the conventional dilution plating method, PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing and headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that largely different fungal and bacterial communities were involved in the soaking and fermentation processes. A clear succession from Pantoea agglomerans to Bacillus (B.) smithii and B. coagulans in dominant bacterial species and from Cladosporium exasperatum to Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Lichtheimia ramosa in dominant fungal species occurred in the soaking processes. In the fermentation process, the most dominant bacterial species was shifted from Pantoea agglomerans to Lactobacillus (La.) acetotolerans and the most dominant fungal species were shifted from Lichtheimia ramose and Rhizopus arrhizus to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The bacterial and fungal species positively associated with acidity and the formation of ethanol and different flavor compounds were specified. The microbial species exhibited strong co-occurrence or co-exclusion relationships were also identified. The results are helpful for the improvement of mechanized fermentation process of light-flavor Baijiu production.

Abstract
The flavor quality of jiupei gradually decreased with the increase of cellar height. In this study, high-throughput sequencing, metabolomics and HS-SPME-GC-MS techniques were used to explore the mechanism of flavor quality decline in upper jiupei in mud sealed cellars. The results showed the total content of flavor compounds increased from 1947.48 mg/L in top-site to 3855.51 mg/L in bottom of the cellar, and 19 differential flavor compounds were identified based on OPLS-DA, mainly including 12 esters such as ethyl hexanoate, ethyl butyrate, propyl hexanoate, hexyl caproate and 5 other substances such as caprylic acid, decanal and nonaldehyde. Lactobacillus, Prevotella and Methanobacterium were dominant genus of bacteria in all of cellars, while Thermomyces, Aspergillus, Pichia, Trichosporon and Rhizopus were the dominant genera of fungi. Oxygen was the key factor causing the quality heterogeneity of flavor substances and microbial communities in jiupei at different depths. Anaerobic micro-pressure sealed cellars (AMSC) method was developed and applied to jiupei fermentation, the difference in oxygen content between top site (5.90 ± 0.62 %) and bottom of the cellar (4.17 ± 0.75 %) in AMSC was smaller than that in mud sealed cellars, there were no significant differences in flavor substances content between top site and bottom of the cellar, and microbial communities showed no significant differences of the four-layer jiupei. This study provides a theoretical support for improving the flavor quality of upper jiupei.

Abstract
This work demonstrated the feasibility of an industrial-scale aerated static pile composting system for treating one of the common biowastes-soybean curd residue. The mixing ratios of the feedstock were optimized to achieve a carbon-nitrogen ratio and a moisture level in the ranges of 25-35 and 60-70%, respectively. This open-air composting system required 6-7 months to obtain a mature compost. Solvita and seed germination tests further confirmed the maturity of the compost, with 25% compost extract concentration yielding the best germination index in the absence of phytotoxicity. The bacterial and fungal compositions of the compost piles were further examined with metagenomic analysis. Thermoactinomyces spp., Oceanobacillus spp., and Kroppenstedtia spp. were among the unique bacteria found, and Diutina rugosa, Thermomyces dupontii, and Candida taylorii were among the unique fungi found in the compost piles, suggesting the presence of good microorganisms for degrading the organic biowastes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The feasibility of fortification techniques to improve the quality of medium-temperature Daqu (MTD) by inoculation functional isolates has been demonstrated. However, it is unclear what is the effect of inoculation on the controllability during the MTD fermentation process. Here, inoculated a single strain of Bacillus licheniformis, and the microbiota composed of Bacillus velezensis and Bacillus subtilis, were used to investigate the synergistic effect of biotic and abiotic factors on the succession and assembly of the MTD microbiota during the process. RESULTS The biotic factors promoted the proliferation of microorganisms that arrived early at the MTD. Subsequently, this alteration might inhibit microorganisms that colonized later in the MTD microecosystem, thereby assembling a different but more stable microbial community. Moreover, the biotic factors making bacterial community assembly were dominated by variable selection earlier, whereas the fungal community assembly was dominated mainly by extreme abiotic factors rather than biotic factors. Interestingly, fermentation temperature and moisture were significantly associated with the succession and assembly of the fortified MTD community. Meanwhile, the effect of the environmental variables on endogenous variables was also significant. Thus, changes in endogenous variables could be mitigated by adjusting environmental variables to regulate the process of MTD fermentation. CONCLUSION Biotic factors cause rapid changes of the microbiota during the MTD fermentation process, which could be controlled indirectly by regulating environmental variables. Meanwhile, a more stable MTD ecological network might be beneficial for enhancing the stability of MTD quality. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Sauce-flavor baijiu is one of the twelve flavor types of Chinese distilled fermented product. Microbial composition plays a key role in the stacked fermentation of Baijiu, which uses grains as raw materials and produces flavor compounds, however, the active microbial community and its relationship remain unclear. Here, we investigated the total and active microbial communities of stacked fermented grains of sauce-flavored Baijiu using flow cytometry and high-throughput sequencing technology, respectively. By using traditional high-throughput sequencing technology, a total of 24 bacterial and 14 fungal genera were identified as the core microbiota, the core bacteria were Lactobacillus (0.08–39.05%), Acetobacter (0.25–81.92%), Weissella (0.03–29.61%), etc. The core fungi were Issatchenkia (23.11–98.21%), Monascus (0.02–26.36%), Pichia (0.33–37.56%), etc. In contrast, using flow cytometry combined with high-throughput sequencing, the active dominant bacterial genera after cell sorting were found to be Herbaspirillum, Chitinophaga, Ralstonia, Phenylobacterium, Mucilaginibacter, and Bradyrhizobium, etc., whereas the active dominant fungal genera detected were Aspergillus, Pichia, Exophiala, Candelabrochaete, Italiomyces, and Papiliotrema, etc. These results indicate that although the abundance of Acetobacter, Monascus, and Issatchenkia was high after stacked fermentation, they may have little biological activity. Flow cytometry and cell sorting techniques have been used in the study of beer and wine, but exploring the microbiome in such a complex environment as Chinese baijiu has not been reported. The results also reveal that flow cytometry and cell sorting are convenient methods for rapidly monitoring complex microbial flora and can assist in exploring complex environmental samples.

Abstract
Nutrient fluctuation is ubiquitous in fermentation ecosystems. However, the microbial community assembly mechanism and metabolic characteristics in response to nutrient variation are still unclear. Here, we used Baijiu fermentation as a case example to study the responses of microbial community assembly and metabolic characteristics to the variation of amino acids using high-throughput sequencing and metatranscriptomics analyses. We chose two fermentation groups (group A with low amino acid and group B with high amino acid contents). The two groups showed similar succession patterns in the bacterial community, whereas they showed different succession in the fungal community wherein Pichia was dominant in group A and Zygosaccharomyces was dominant in group B. The β-nearest taxon index (βNTI) revealed that bacterial community was randomly formed, whereas fungal community assembly was a deterministic process. Variance partitioning analysis and redundancy analysis revealed that amino acids showed the largest contribution to the fungal community (37.64%, P = 0.005) and were more tightly associated with it in group B. Further study revealed that serine was positively related to Zygosaccharomyces and promoted its growth and ethanol production. Metatranscriptomic analysis revealed that the differential metabolic pathways between the two groups mainly included carbohydrate metabolism and amino acid metabolism, which explained the differences of ethanol production and volatile metabolites (such as isoamylol, isobutanol, and 2-methyl-1-butanol). Then these metabolic pathways were constructed and related gene expression and active microorganisms were listed. Our study provides a systematical understanding of the roles of amino acids in both ecological maintenance and flavor metabolism in fermentation ecosystems. IMPORTANCE In spontaneous fermented foods production, nutrient fluctuation is a critical factor affecting microbial community assembly and metabolic function. Revealing the microbial community assembly mechanism and how it regulates its metabolic characteristics in response to nutrient variation is helpful to the management of the fermentation process. This study provides a systematical understanding of the effect of amino acids on the microbial community assembly and flavor metabolisms using Baijiu fermentation as a case example. The data of this study highlight the importance of the nutrient management in fermentation ecosystems.

Revelation for the Influence Mechanism of Long-Chain Fatty Acid Ethyl Esters on the Baijiu Quality by Multicomponent Chemometrics Combined with Modern Flavor Sensomics. Foods 2023; 12:foods12061267. [PMID: 36981194 PMCID: PMC10048143 DOI: 10.3390/foods12061267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Long-chain fatty acid ethyl ester (LCFAEEs) is colorless and has a weak wax and cream aroma. It can be used as an intermediate for the synthesis of emulsifiers, and stabilizers and be applied in the production of flavor essence. It is also an important trace component in Baijiu and is attributed to making a contribution to the quality of Baijiu, but its distribution in Baijiu has not been clear, and its influence mechanisms on Baijiu quality have not been systematically studied. Therefore, the distribution of LCFAEEs for Baijiu in different years (2014, 2015, 2018, and 2022), different grades (premium, excellent, and level 1; note: here Baijiu grade classification was based on Chinese standard (GB/T 10781) and enterprise classification standard), and different sun exposure times (0, 6, 12, 20, 30, and 50 days) was uncovered. Thus, in this study, the effect of LCFAEEs on the quality of Baijiu was comprehensively and objectively proven by combining modern flavor sensomics and multicomponent chemometrics. The results showed that with the increase in Baijiu storage time, the concentration of LCFAEEs increased significantly in Baijiu (4.38–196.95 mg/L, p < 0.05). The concentration of LCFAEEs in level 1 Baijiu was significantly higher than that in excellent and premium Baijiu (the concentration ranges of ET, EP, EO, E9, E912, and E91215 were: 0.27–2.31 mg/L, 0.75–47.41 mg/L, 0.93–1.80 mg/L, 0.98–12.87 mg/L, 1.01–27.08 mg/L, and 1.00–1.75 mg/L, respectively, p < 0.05). With the increase in sun exposure time, the concentration of LCFAEEs in the Baijiu first increased significantly and then decreased significantly (4.38–5.95 mg/L, p < 0.05). As the flavor sensomics showed, the concentrations of LCFAEEs in Baijiu bodies were significantly correlated with the Baijiu taste sense (inlet taste, aroma sensation in the mouth), as well as with the evaluation after drinking (maintaining taste) (p < 0.05, r > 0.7). Based on the above, LCFAEEs are critical factors for Baijiu flavor thus, it is essential to explore a suitable concentration of LCFAEEs in Baijiu to make Baijiu’s quality more ideal.

Composition and function of viruses in sauce-flavor baijiu fermentation. Int J Food Microbiol 2023; 387:110055.

Abstract
Viruses are highly abundant in nature, associated with quality and safety of traditional fermented foods. However, the overall viral diversity and function are still poorly understood in food microbiome. Traditional baijiu fermentation is an ideal model system to examine the diversity and function of viruses owing to easy access, stable operation, and domesticated microbial community. Equipped with cutting-edge viral metagenomics, we investigated the viral community in the fermented grain and fermentation environment, as well as their contribution to baijiu fermentation. Viral communities in the fermented grains and fermentation environment are highly similar. The dominant viruses were bacteriophages, mainly including the order Caudovirales and the family Inoviridae. Furtherly, association network analysis showed that viruses and bacteria were significantly negatively correlated (P < 0.01). Viral diversity could significantly influence bacterial and fungal succession (P < 0.05). Moreover, we proved that starter phages could significantly inhibit the growth of Bacillus licheniformis in the logarithmic growth stage (P < 0.05) under culture condition. Based on the functional annotations, viruses and bacteria both showed high distribution of genes related to amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism. In addition, abundant auxiliary carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) genes were also identified in viruses, indicating that viruses were involved in the decomposition of complex polysaccharides during fermentation. Our results revealed that viruses could crucially affect microbial community and metabolism during traditional fermentation.

Abstract
Distilled jujube liquor is an alcoholic beverage made from jujube, which has a unique flavor and a sweet taste. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of mixed fermentation on the quality of distilled jujube liquor by comparing the performance of mixed fermentation between S. cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris and Lactobacillus. The results showed that there were significant differences in the quality of the jujube liquor between the combined strains. Moreover, Lactobacillus increased and P. pastoris reduced the total acid content. The results from an E-nose showed that the contents of methyl, alcohol, aldehyde, and ketone substances in the test bottle decreased significantly after decanting, while the contents of inorganic sulfide and organic sulfide increased. Fifty flavor compounds were detected, including nineteen esters, twelve alcohols, seven ketones, six aldehydes, three alkenes, one furan, one pyridine, and one acid. There were no significant differences in the type or content of flavor compounds. However, PLS-DA showed differences among the samples. Eighteen volatile organic compounds with variable importance in projection values > 1 were obtained. There were sensory differences among the four samples. Compared with the sample fermented with only S. cerevisiae, the samples co-fermented with Lactobacillus or with P. pastoris had an obvious bitter taste and mellow taste, respectively. The sample fermented by all three strains had a prominent fruity flavor. Except for the sample fermented with only S. cerevisiae, the jujube flavor was weakened to varying degrees in all samples. Co-fermentation could be a valuable method to improve the flavor quality of distilled jujube liquor. This study revealed the effects of different mixed fermentation modes on the sensory flavor of distilled jujube liquor and provided a theoretical basis for the establishment of special mixed fermentation agents for distilled jujube liquor in the future.

Abstract
Sauce-flavor Baijiu is representative of solid-state fermented Baijiu. It is significant to deeply reveal the dynamic changes of microorganisms in the manufacturing process and their impact on the formation of flavor chemicals correlated with the quality of Baijiu. Sauce-flavor Baijiu manufacturing process can be divided into seven rounds, from which seven kinds of base Baijius are produced. The quality of base Baijiu in the third round is significantly better than that in the first and second rounds, but the mystery behind the phenomenon has not yet been revealed. Based on high-throughput sequencing and flavor analysis of fermented grains, and correlation analysis, the concentrations of flavor chemicals in the third round of fermented grains were enhanced, including esters hexanoic acid, ethyl ester; octanoic acid, ethyl ester; decanoic acid, ethyl ester; dodecanoic acid, ethyl ester; phenylacetic acid, ethyl ester; 3-(methylthio)-propionic acid ethyl ester; acetic acid, phenylethyl ester; hexanoic acid, butyl ester, and other flavor chemicals closely related to the flavor of sauce-flavor Baijiu, such as tetramethylpyrazine. The changes in flavor chemicals should be an important reason for the quality improvement of the third round of base Baijiu. Correlation analysis showed that ester synthesis was promoted by the bacteria genus Lactobacillus and many low abundances of fungal genera, and these low abundances of fungal genera also had important contributions to the production of tetramethylpyrazine. Meanwhile, the degrading metabolic pathway of tetramethylpyrazine was investigated, and the possible microorganisms were correlated. These results clarified the base Baijiu quality improvement of the third round and helped to provide a theoretical basis for improving base Baijiu quality.

Abstract
The Chishui River basin is the main production area of the sauce-flavor Baijiu. Due to the particularity of sauce-flavor Baijiu technology, a large site of workshops needs to be built for brewing and storage. Therefore, used the natural karst caves of Guizhou province to manufacture the sauce-flavor Baijiu, which has enriched the connotation of sauce-flavor Baijiu and saved valuable land resources. In this study, the fermentation grains in the seven stages during the Xiasha round of the cave-brewed sauce-flavor Baijiu (CBSB) were detected using a combination of physicochemical analysis, Headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass detection, and Illumina HiSeq sequencing methods. The results showed Unspecified_Leuconostocaceae, Weissella, Unspecified_Bacillaceae, Saccharomycopsis, Thermomyces, and Unspecified_Phaffomycetaceae were the main bacterial and fungal genera in the stacking fermentation (SF). In the cellar fermentation (CF), the Lactobacillus, Unspecified_Lactobacillaceae, Thermoactinomyces, Saccharomycopsis, Unspecified_Phaffomycetaceae, and Wickerhamomyces were the main bacterial and fungal genera. A total of 72 volatiles were detected in the fermented grains. Linear discriminant analysis Effect Size (LEfSe) identified 23 significantly different volatile metabolites in the fermentation process, including 7 esters, 6 alcohols, 4 acids, 3 phenols, 1 hydrocarbon, and 2 other compounds. Redundancy analysis was used to explore the correlation between dominant microbial genera and physicochemical properties. Starch was the main physicochemical property affecting microbial succession in the SF. Acidity, moisture, and reducing sugar were the main driving factors of microbial succession in the CF. The Pearson correlation coefficient revealed the correlation between dominant microbial genera and significantly different volatile flavor substances. A total of 18 dominant microbial genera were associated with significantly different volatile metabolites, Lactobacillus, Weissella, Wickerhamomyces, and Aspergillus were shown to play crucial roles in metabolite synthesis. On this basis, a metabolic map of the dominant microbial genera was established. This study provides a theoretical basis for the production and quality control of sauce-flavor Baijiu brewed in natural karst caves and lays a foundation for studying the link between flavor formation and microorganisms.

Abstract
The compositions of the microbial community in fermented grains of Sauce-flavor baijiu produced in different regions have diverse characteristics; however, the reasons for this remain unclear. The present study investigated the contributions of environmental microorganisms to the microbial community as well as the volatile compounds in the fermented grains of Sauce-flavor baijiu produced in the Beijing region using high-throughput sequencing combined with sourcetracker analysis, and compared the differences of environmental microorganism and their roles in the production process of Sauce-flavor baijiu from different regions.The results showed that the environmental microorganisms in the tools were the main contributors of the bacterial and fungal communities in fermented grains during heap fermentation and at the beginning of pit fermentation. At the end of pit fermentation, pit mud was the main environmental source of bacterial community in fermented grains, while tools and Daqu were the main environmental sources of fungal community in fermented grains.Environmental microorganisms thrived on the functional microorganisms in the fermented grains of Sauce-flavor baijiu produced in the Beijing region and thus shaped the profiles of volatile compounds. Environmental microorganisms of Sauce-flavor baijiu in the Guizhou province and the Beijing region differed significantly, which is partially responsible for the distinctive characteristics in the microbial community structure of Sauce-flavor baijiu-fermented grains from different regions.

Abstract
Daqu is not only a crucial starter in the production of baijiu, but it is also an important source of flavoring substances, so maintaining a stable quality is an important part of improving the quality of baijiu. Nonetheless, since the production of daqu is still a natural fermentation process, which is influenced by seasonal factors, the rapid testing of daqu quality is a problem that must be solved. In this study, headspace solid-phase microextraction technology (HS-SPME) was used to explore the volatile components in daqu, and a total of 115 volatile components were extracted. By constructing an untargeted statistical model, the variation in volatile compounds in dissimilar production processes of daqu was studied, and the differences between different maturation stages and the correlations between volatile compounds were analyzed. Subsequently, six compounds, including ethyl acetate, ethanol, phenylethanol, (R,R)-2,3-butanediol, ethyl caproate, and 2,3-butanediol, were further screened out by partial least squares discrimination analysis (PLS-DA), and the symbolic combination of daqu’s maturity was speedily judged in accordance with the changes in marker compound concentrations to lay the foundation for the mechanization of baijiu production.

Abstract
Spontaneously fermented foods are consumed and appreciated for thousands of years although they are usually produced with fluctuated productivity and quality, potentially threatening both food safety and food security. To guarantee consistent fermentation productivity and quality, it is essential to control the complex microbiota, the most crucial factor in food fermentations. The prerequisite for the control is to comprehensively understand the structure and function of the microbiota. How to quantify the actual microbiota is of paramount importance. Among various microbial quantitative methods evolved, quantitative microbiome profiling, namely to quantify all microbial taxa by absolute abundance, is the best method to understand the complex microbiota, although it is still at its pioneering stage for food fermentations. Here, we provide an overview of microbial quantitative methods, including the development from conventional methods to the advanced quantitative microbiome profiling, and the application examples of these methods. Moreover, we address potential challenges and perspectives of quantitative microbiome profiling methods, as well as future research needs for the ultimate goal of rational and optimal control of microbiota in spontaneous food fermentations. Our review can serve as reference for the traditional food fermentation sector for stable fermentation productivity, quality and safety.

Abstract
Geosmin produced by Streptomyces can cause an earthy off-flavor at trace levels, seriously deteriorating the quality of Chinese liquor. Geosmin was detected during the Daqu (Chinese liquor fermentation starter)-making process, which is a multi-species fermentation process in an open system. Here, biocontrol, using the native microbiota present in Daqu making, was used to control the geosmin contamination. Six native strains were obtained according to their inhibitory effects on Streptomyces and then were inoculated into the Daqu fermentation. After inoculation, the content of geosmin decreased by 34.40% (from 7.18 ± 0.13 μg/kg to 4.71 ± 0.30 μg/kg) in the early stage and by 55.20% (from 8.86 ± 1.54 μg/kg to 3.97 ± 0.78 μg/kg) in the late stage. High-throughput sequencing combined with an interaction network revealed that the fungal community played an important role in the early stage and the correlation between Pichia and Streptomyces changed from the original indirect promotion to direct inhibition after inoculation. This study provides an effective strategy for controlling geosmin contamination in Daqu via precisely regulating microbial communities, as well as highlights the potential of biocontrol for controlling off-flavor chemicals at trace levels in complex fermentation systems.

Geographically Associated Fungus-Bacterium Interactions Contribute to the Formation of Geography-Dependent Flavor during High-Complexity Spontaneous Fermentation. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0184422. [PMID: 36135710 PMCID: PMC9603688 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01844-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Fermented foods often have attractive flavor characteristics to meet various human demands. An ever-challenging target is the production of fermented foods with equal flavor profiles outside the product's origin. However, the formation of geography-dependent flavor in high-complexity fermentations remains poorly understood. Here, taking Chinese liquor (baijiu) fermentation as an example, we collected 403 samples from 9 different locations in China across a latitude range of 27°N to 37°N. We revealed and validated the geography-dependent flavor formation patterns by using culture-independent (metabolomics, metagenomics, and metatranscriptomics) and culture-dependent tools. We found that the baijiu microbiomes along with their metabolites were flavor related and geography dependent. The geographical characteristics were determined mainly by 20 to 40 differentiated chemical markers in metabolites and the latitude-dependent fungal structure of the microbiome. About 48 to 156 core microbiota members out of 735 bacterial genera and 290 fungal genera contributed to the chemical markers. The contributions of both fungi and bacteria were greater than those from either bacteria or fungi alone. Representatively, we revealed that dynamic interdependent interactions between yeasts and Lactobacillus facilitated the metabolism of heterocyclic flavor chemicals such as 2-acetylpyrrole, 2,3,5-trimethylpyrazine, and 2-acetylfuran. Moreover, we found that the intraspecific genomic diversity and microbial structure were two biotic factors that contributed to dynamic microbiome assembly. Based on the assembly pattern, adjusting the composition and distribution of initial species was one option to regulate the formation of diverse flavor characteristics. Our study provided a rationale for developing a microbiome design to achieve a defined flavor goal. IMPORTANCE People consume many spontaneously fermented foods and beverages with different flavors on a daily basis. One crucial and hotly discussed question is how to reproduce fermented food flavor without geographical limitations to meet diverse human demands. The constantly enriched knowledge of the microbial contribution to fermented flavor offers valuable insights into flavor biotechnological development. However, we still have a poor understanding of what factors limit the reproduction of fermented flavor outside the product's origin in high-complexity spontaneous fermentations. Here, taking baijiu fermentation as an example, we revealed that geography-dependent flavor was contributed mainly by fungus-bacterium cooperative metabolism. The distinct initial microbial composition, distribution, and intraspecific genomic diversity limited reproducible microbial interactions and metabolism in different geographical areas. The abundant microbial resources and predicted fungus-bacterium interactions found in baijiu fermentation enable us to design a synthetic microbial community to reproduce desired flavor profiles in the future.

BMC Microbiol 2022; 22:239. [PMID: 36199024 PMCID: PMC9533515 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-022-02653-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Fruit bagging is an effective technique for fruit protection in the orchard management. Bagging can create a micro-environment for fruit growth and affect fruit quality during storage, in which the diversity of microorganisms may play an important role. Therefore, various methods including biochemistry, analytical chemistry, and bioinformatics methods were used to reveal the influences of fruit bagging on postharvest fruit quality, physiological characters, decay and surface fungal community of ‘Yali’ pear fruit were investigated in this study. Results Fruit bagging significantly decreased the postharvest decay after 15 days of ambient storage. There were no significant differences in fruit firmness, titratable acid and ethylene production rate between the fruit-bagging and non-bagging group after 15 days of storage, while the soluble solids contents (SSC) and respiration rate in non-bagging fruit was significantly higher than that in fruit-bagging after 15 days of storage. Furthermore, the surface microbes of pear were collected and determined by the new generation sequencing technology. The alpha diversity of fungi in non-bagging fruit decreased significantly after 15 days of storage, while there were no significant changes in bagging fruit. Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were the two major phyla detected in the bagging fruit, and the dominant fungal genera were Alternaria (23.7%), Mycosphaerella (17.25%), Vishniacozyma (16.14%), and Aureobasidium (10.51%) after 15 days of storage. For the non-bagging pear, Ascomycota was the only phylum detected, and the dominant genera was Pichia (83.32%) after 15 days of storage. The abundance of Pichia may be regarded as the biomarker to indicate the degree of fruit decay. Conclusions This study showed that fruit bagging could significantly reduce postharvest fruit decay and respiration rate of ‘Yali’ pear. Significant differences were found in fungal composition between bagging and non-bagging pear after storage for 0 or 15 days. Fruit bagging maintained the diversity of fungi on the fruit surface, increased the abundance of non-pathogenic fungi, and even antagonistic fungi such as Aureobasidium, Vishniacozyma, and Mycosphaerella. A reduction in the abundance of pathogenic fungi and incidence of postharvest decay during the storage of ‘Yali’ pear were also recorded. In conclusion, fruit-bagging changed the fungal diversity on fruit surface of ‘Yali’ pear, which had significant effect on reducing postharvest fruit decay, and thus prolong the storage period of ‘Yali’ pears. The future thrust of this study will focus on the isolation of fungi or bacteria from pear fruit surface and identify their roles in causing fruit decay and changing fruit quality during storage.
