Mobasherpour P, Yavarmanesh M, Edalatian Dovom MR. Antitumor properties of traditional lactic acid bacteria: Short-chain fatty acid production and interleukin 12 induction. Heliyon 2024; 10:e36183. [PMID: 39253228 PMCID: PMC11382311 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e36183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 08/11/2024] [Accepted: 08/12/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024] Open
Abstract
This paper presents an in vitro evaluation of antitumor properties through producing short-chain fatty acids and inducing interleukin 12. In addition, it offers the most important and functional probiotic properties of 24 Lactobacillus gasseri, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Limosilactobacillus fermentum strains isolated from humans, foods, and fermented foods. To this end, survival in an acidic environment (pH = 2.5), tolerance in bile salt, viability in the presence of pepsin-pancreatin, adhesion percentage, antibiotic resistance, auto-aggregation, and potential percentage of co-aggregation are studied in contact with three human intestinal pathogens. These pathogens are Escherichia coli O157: H7 NCTC 12900, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica ATCC 13076, and Listeria monocytogenes ATTC 7644. Also, in vitro induction amount of IL-12 in mouse splenocytes is investigated to evaluate antitumor properties by 19 strains of L. gasseri and L. plantarum along with the development of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) by 5 strains of L. fermentum and L. acidophilus. Gas Chromatography Flame Ionization Detector (GC-FID) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to measure short-chain fatty acids and IL-12, respectively. All strains had high viability under acidic conditions. The highest levels of pancreatin and pepsin resistance were found in strains LF56, LF57, LF55, OF, and F and strains LF56, LF57, and A7, respectively. All strains except LF56 had high resistance to bile salts. L. gasseri 54C had the highest average adhesion score (hydrophobicity) of 62.9 % among 19 strains. Despite the susceptibility of different strains of L. plantarum to the tested antibiotics, M8 and M11, S2G, A7, LF55, LF57, and 5G were resistant to kanamycin and chloramphenicol, respectively. Also, 21G was resistant to ampicillin, LF56 to tetracycline and M8, and M11, LF56, and 21G to Erythromycin. In addition, L. gasseri showed moderate resistance to ampicillin, erythromycin, and tetracycline, while L. fermentum ATCC 9338 showed good resistance to ampicillin, erythromycin, and chloramphenicol. In this respect, L. plantarum LF56 and gasseri 54C had the highest average auto-aggregation and co-aggregation against three pathogenic bacteria, respectively. The highest and lowest levels of acetic acid as short-chain fatty acids were produced by L. fermentum 19SH isolated from Horre 41.62 and L. fermentum 21SH from fermented seeds 27.047, respectively. Moreover, L. fermentum, with the OF code of traditional-fermented food origin, produced the most isobutyric acid, butyric acid, and valeric acid, with values of 0.6828, 0.74165, and 0.49915 mmol, respectively. L. fermentum isolated from the human origin with code F produced the most isovaleric acid of 1.1874 mmol. All the tested strains produced good propionic acid except L. fermentum 21SH from fermented seeds. Among strains, L. plantarum M11 isolated from milk and L. gasseri 52B from humans had the highest in vitro induction of IL-12, which is probably related to their cell wall compositions and structure.

Relationship between Microbial Composition of Sourdough and Texture, Volatile Compounds of Chinese Steamed Bread. Foods 2022; 11:foods11131908. [PMID: 35804724 PMCID: PMC9265662 DOI: 10.3390/foods11131908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of this work was to explore the relationship between the microbial communities of sourdoughs collected from the Xinjiang and Gansu areas of China and the quality of steamed bread. Compared to yeast-based steamed bread, sourdough-based steamed bread is superior in terms of its hardness, adhesiveness, flexibility, and chewiness. It is rich in flavor compounds, but a significant difference in volatile flavor substances was observed between the two sourdoughs. A total of 19 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from the Gansu sourdough sample, in which Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Pediococcus pentosaceus were the dominant species, accounting for 42.11% and 36.84%, respectively. A total of 16 strains of LAB were isolated from the Xinjiang sourdough sample, in which Lactiplantibacillus plantarum was the dominant species, accounting for 75%. High-throughput sequencing further confirmed these results. Clearly, the species diversity of Gansu sourdough was higher. The volatile profiles of the sourdoughs were similar, but differences in the individual volatile compounds were detected between the sourdoughs of the Gansu and Xinjiang regions. These results point out that the differences in the microbiota and the dominant strains lead to differences in the quality of sourdoughs from region to region. This investigation offers promising guidance on improving the quality of traditional steamed bread by adjusting the microorganisms in sourdough.

Enzyme systems involved in glucosinolate metabolism in Companilactobacillus farciminis KB1089. Sci Rep 2021; 11:23715. [PMID: 34887468 PMCID: PMC8660893 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-03064-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2021] [Accepted: 11/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Cruciferous vegetables are rich sources of glucosinolates (GSLs). GSLs are degraded into isothiocyanates, which are potent anticarcinogens, by human gut bacteria. However, the mechanisms and enzymes involved in gut bacteria-mediated GSL metabolism are currently unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the enzymes involved in GSL metabolism in lactic acid bacteria, a type of gut bacteria. Companilactobacillus farciminis KB1089 was selected as a lactic acid bacteria strain model that metabolizes sinigrin, which is a GSL, into allylisothiocyanate. The sinigrin-metabolizing activity of this strain is induced under glucose-absent and sinigrin-present conditions. A quantitative comparative proteomic analysis was conducted and a total of 20 proteins that were specifically expressed in the induced cells were identified. Three candidate proteins, β-glucoside-specific IIB, IIC, IIA phosphotransferase system (PTS) components (CfPttS), 6-phospho-β-glucosidase (CfPbgS) and a hypothetical protein (CfNukS), were suspected to be involved in sinigrin-metabolism and were thus investigated further. We hypothesize a pathway for sinigrin degradation, wherein sinigrin is taken up and phosphorylated by CfPttS, and subsequently, the phosphorylated entity is degraded by CfPbgS. As expression of both pttS and pbgS genes clearly gave Escherichia coli host strain sinigrin converting activity, these genes were suggested to be responsible for sinigrin degradation. Furthermore, heterologous expression analysis using Lactococcus lactis suggested that CfPttS was important for sinigrin degradation and CfPbgS degraded phosphorylated sinigrin.

Abstract
A Gram-positive, facultative anaerobic, catalase-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped lactic acid bacterium strain, denoted as NFFJ11T and isolated from total mixed fermentation feed in the Republic of Korea, was characterized through polyphasic approaches, including sequence analyses of the 16S rRNA gene and housekeeping genes (rpoA and pheS), determination of average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization, fatty acid methyl ester analysis, and phenotypic characterization. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA, rpoA and pheS gene sequences revealed that strain NFFJ11T belonged to the genus Companilactobacillus. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain NFFJ11T exhibited high similarity to Companilactobacillus formosensis S215T (99.66 %), Companilactobacillus farciminis Rv4 naT (99.53 %), Companilactobacillus crustorum LMG 23699T (99.19 %), Companilactobacillus futsaii YM 0097T (99.06 %), Companilactobacillus zhachilii HBUAS52074T (98.86 %) and Companilactobacillus heilongiiangensis S4-3T (98.66 %). However, average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values for these type strains were in the range of 79.90-92.93 % and 23.80-49.30 %, respectively, which offer evidence that strain NFFJ11T belongs to a novel species of the genus Companilactobacillus. The cell-wall peptidoglycan type was A4α (l-Lys-d-Asp) and the G+C content of the genomic DNA was 35.7 mol%. The main fatty acids of strain NFFJ11T were C18 : 1 ω9c (43.3 %), C16 : 0 (20.1 %) and summed feature 7 (18.3 %; comprising any combination of C19 : 1 ω7c, C19 : 1 ω6c and C19 : 0 cyclo ω10c). Through polyphasic taxonomic analysis, it was observed that strain NFFJ11T represents a novel species belonging to the genus Companilactobacillus, for which the name Companilactobacillus pabuli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NFFJ11T (= KACC 21771T= JCM 34088T).

Abstract
Humans have relied on sourdough starter microbial communities to make leavened bread for thousands of years, but only a small fraction of global sourdough biodiversity has been characterized. Working with a community-scientist network of bread bakers, we determined the microbial diversity of 500 sourdough starters from four continents. In sharp contrast with widespread assumptions, we found little evidence for biogeographic patterns in starter communities. Strong co-occurrence patterns observed in situ and recreated in vitro demonstrate that microbial interactions shape sourdough community structure. Variation in dough rise rates and aromas were largely explained by acetic acid bacteria, a mostly overlooked group of sourdough microbes. Our study reveals the extent of microbial diversity in an ancient fermented food across diverse cultural and geographic backgrounds.

Phylotype-Level Characterization of Complex Communities of Lactobacilli Using a High-Throughput, High-Resolution Phenylalanyl-tRNA Synthetase ( pheS) Gene Amplicon Sequencing Approach. Appl Environ Microbiol 2020; 87:AEM.02191-20. [PMID: 33097506 DOI: 10.1128/aem.02191-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The lactobacilli identified to date encompass more than 270 closely related species that were recently reclassified into 26 genera. Because of their relevance to industry, there is a need to distinguish between closely related and yet metabolically and regulatory distinct species, e.g., during monitoring of biotechnological processes or screening of samples of unknown composition. Current available methods, such as shotgun metagenomics or rRNA gene-based amplicon sequencing, have significant limitations (high cost, low resolution, etc.). Here, we generated a phylogeny of lactobacilli based on phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase (pheS) genes and, from it, developed a high-resolution taxonomic framework which allows for comprehensive and confident characterization of the community diversity and structure of lactobacilli at the species level. This framework is based on a total of 445 pheS gene sequences, including sequences of 276 validly described species and subspecies (of a total of 282, including the proposed L. timonensis species and the reproposed L. zeae species; coverage of 98%), and allows differentiation between 265 species-level clades of lactobacilli and the subspecies of L. sakei The methodology was validated through next-generation sequencing of mock communities. At a sequencing depth of ∼30,000 sequences, the minimum level of detection was approximately 0.02 pg per μl DNA (equaling approximately 10 genome copies per μl template DNA). The pheS approach, along with parallel sequencing of partial 16S rRNA genes, revealed considerable diversity of lactobacilli and distinct community structures across a broad range of samples from different environmental niches. This novel complementary approach may be applicable to industry and academia alike.IMPORTANCE Species formerly classified within the genera Lactobacillus and Pediococcus have been studied extensively at the genomic level. To accommodate their exceptional functional diversity, the over 270 species were recently reclassified into 26 distinct genera. Despite their relevance to both academia and industry, methods that allow detailed exploration of their ecology are still limited by low resolution, high cost, or copy number variations. The approach described here makes use of a single-copy marker gene which outperforms other markers with regard to species-level resolution and availability of reference sequences (98% coverage). The tool was validated against a mock community and used to address diversity of lactobacilli and community structure in various environmental matrices. Such analyses can now be performed at a broader scale to assess and monitor the assembly, structure, and function of communities of lactobacilli at the species level (and, in some cases, even at the subspecies level) across a wide range of academic and commercial applications.

Abstract
Extra ingredients are often used in traditional sourdough production recipes by artisan bakeries. These ingredients may be the source of microorganisms or stimulate the growth and/or the metabolic activities of the microorganisms added to or naturally present in the flour-water mixture. The present study examined the influence of the addition of lemon juice or apple juice as source of citrate or malate, respectively, on the growth and activity of the citrate- and malate-positive Companilactobacillus crustorum LMG 23699 strain (formerly known as Lactobacillus crustorum LMG 23699), used to initiate firm (dough yield of 200) wheat sourdough productions, and on the flavour of the baked goods produced. Three fermentation strategies were applied, namely one-step long fermentation sourdough production processes with the addition of juice at the start (Type 2) and backslopped fermentations with the addition of juice either only at the start of the sourdough productions or at the start of the sourdough productions and at the beginning of each subsequent refreshment step during the whole backslopping process (both Type 3). It turned out that the starter culture strain used prevailed during all sourdough productions performed. Yeasts were particularly present in Type 3 sourdough productions, although lemon juice retarded their growth. Due to high yeast activity, high concentrations of ethanol and glycerol were produced toward the end of the sourdough productions. Addition of lemon juice stimulated the production of lactic acid, acetic acid, and the buttery flavour compounds acetoin and diacetyl, because of citrate conversion, during the Type 2 and Type 3 sourdough productions. In Type 3 sourdough productions, these compounds were found in higher concentrations only when lemon juice was added at each backslopping step. Alternatively, the addition of apple juice led to high concentrations of lactic acid because of malolactic fermentation in both Type 2 and Type 3 sourdough productions. Moreover, the addition of apple juice increased the initial concentrations of the carbohydrates (fructose, glucose, and sucrose) and sugar alcohols (mannitol and sorbitol), which were exhausted upon backslopping or accumulated in the sourdough matrix, respectively. Baked goods produced using sourdoughs obtained from the Type 2 and Type 3 sourdough productions with the addition of juice at each backslopping step were significantly different in flavour from doughs supplemented with the respective juices and lactic acid and/or Type 3 sourdough productions with the addition of juice only at the start.

Abstract
Hundreds of sourdoughs have been investigated in the last decades. However, many studies used a culture-dependent and/or culture-independent microbiological approach [mainly based on denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of PCR amplicons], seldomly combined with a metabolite target analysis, to characterize the microbial species communities of the sourdoughs examined. Moreover, attention was mainly paid on lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast species. In the present study, distinct household-scale (including an artisan lambic brewery) and artisan bakery-scale backslopped sourdoughs (17 in total), obtained from different regions (Belgium, France, United Kingdom, and USA), were examined through a multiphasic approach, encompassing a culture-dependent analysis [targeting LAB, acetic acid bacteria (AAB), and yeasts], different culture-independent techniques [rRNA-PCR-DGGE, metagenetics, and metagenomics (four bakery sourdoughs)], and metabolite target analysis. It turned out that the microbial species diversity of the sourdoughs was influenced by the house microbiota of the producer. Further, when the producer made use of different flours, the sourdoughs harbored similar microbial communities, independent of the flour used. AAB were only present in the Belgian sourdoughs, which might again be related to the processing environment. Fructilactobacillus sanfranciscensis (formerly known as Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis) was the prevalent LAB species of the eight sourdoughs produced by two of the three bakeries of different countries analyzed. These sourdoughs were characterized by the presence of either Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Kazachstania humilis. Moreover, the presence of Fl. sanfranciscensis was positively correlated with the production of mannitol and negatively correlated with the presence of other LAB or AAB species. Sourdoughs produced in an artisan lambic brewery were characterized by the presence of the yeast species Dekkera anomala and Pichia membranifaciens. One household sourdough was characterized by the presence of uncommon species, such as Pediococcus parvulus and Pichia fermentans. Metagenomic sequencing allowed the detection of many more LAB and AAB species than the other methods applied, which opened new frontiers for the understanding of the microbial communities involved during sourdough production processes.

Abstract
The genus Lactobacillus comprises 261 species (at March 2020) that are extremely diverse at phenotypic, ecological and genotypic levels. This study evaluated the taxonomy of Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae on the basis of whole genome sequences. Parameters that were evaluated included core genome phylogeny, (conserved) pairwise average amino acid identity, clade-specific signature genes, physiological criteria and the ecology of the organisms. Based on this polyphasic approach, we propose reclassification of the genus Lactobacillus into 25 genera including the emended genus Lactobacillus, which includes host-adapted organisms that have been referred to as the Lactobacillus delbrueckii group, Paralactobacillus and 23 novel genera for which the names Holzapfelia, Amylolactobacillus, Bombilactobacillus, Companilactobacillus, Lapidilactobacillus, Agrilactobacillus, Schleiferilactobacillus, Loigolactobacilus, Lacticaseibacillus, Latilactobacillus, Dellaglioa, Liquorilactobacillus, Ligilactobacillus, Lactiplantibacillus, Furfurilactobacillus, Paucilactobacillus, Limosilactobacillus, Fructilactobacillus, Acetilactobacillus, Apilactobacillus, Levilactobacillus, Secundilactobacillus and Lentilactobacillus are proposed. We also propose to emend the description of the family Lactobacillaceae to include all genera that were previously included in families Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae. The generic term 'lactobacilli' will remain useful to designate all organisms that were classified as Lactobacillaceae until 2020. This reclassification reflects the phylogenetic position of the micro-organisms, and groups lactobacilli into robust clades with shared ecological and metabolic properties, as exemplified for the emended genus Lactobacillus encompassing species adapted to vertebrates (such as Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus iners, Lactobacillus crispatus, Lactobacillus jensensii, Lactobacillus johnsonii and Lactobacillus acidophilus) or invertebrates (such as Lactobacillus apis and Lactobacillus bombicola).

The addition of citrate stimulates the production of acetoin and diacetyl by a citrate-positive Lactobacillus crustorum strain during wheat sourdough fermentation. Int J Food Microbiol 2018; 289:88-105.

Abstract
In traditional sourdough fermentation recipes of artisan bakeries, often extra ingredients are added to the flour-water mixture. This may accentuate the aroma and taste of the baked products produced from such sourdoughs. This is made possible, for instance, by stimulating certain microbial activities during fermentation. This study examined the effects of the addition of citrate (a food-grade organic acid present in milk and lemons) on wheat sourdough fermentation in the presence of a citrate-positive, homofermentative, lactic acid bacterial starter culture strain, namely Lactobacillus crustorum LMG 23699. Both liquid and firm wheat sourdoughs were produced. The starter culture strain was able to steer all wheat sourdough fermentations performed, as it always prevailed due to its competitiveness, as shown through culture-dependent microbiological plating and culture-independent bacterial community profiling. Moreover, it possessed all enzyme-encoding genes (as unraveled through genome mining) necessary to convert citrate into desirable compounds such as lactic acid, acetic acid, succinate, acetoin, diacetyl, and 2,3-butanediol. Indeed, citrate addition to the wheat flour-water mixture had an impact on the sourdough fermentation dynamics and thus on the aroma profile of the liquid and firm sourdoughs produced and breads made thereof. A higher final pH, higher total titratable acidity values, and low yeast counts were found in wheat sourdoughs produced with citrate. In particular, the starter culture strain added converted the supplemented citrate into more l-lactic acid as well as acetoin and diacetyl (buttery aroma compounds), which was independent of the dough yield. The buttery aroma compounds were also accentuated in the concomitant breads produced. Further, organic acid production was stimulated in the sourdoughs, whereas increased pyrazine concentrations occurred in the breads. Consequently, citrate supplementation to wheat sourdoughs could be of interest to produce baked goods with enhanced buttery aroma compounds and notes.

Abstract
From a microbiological perspective, sourdough is to be considered as a specific and stressful ecosystem, harboring yeasts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB), that is used for the production of baked goods. With respect to the metabolic impact of the sourdough microbiota, acidification (LAB), flavor formation (LAB and yeasts), and leavening (yeasts and heterofermentative LAB species) are most noticeable. Three distinct types of sourdough fermentation processes can be discerned based on the inocula applied, namely backslopped ones (type 1), those initiated with starter cultures (type 2), and those initiated with a starter culture followed by backslopping (type 3). A sourdough-characteristic LAB species is Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis. A sourdough-characteristic yeast species is Candida humilis. Although it has been suggested that the microbiota of a specific sourdough may be influenced by its geographical origin, region specificity often seems to be an artefact resulting from interpretation of the research data, as those are dependent on sampling, isolation, and identification procedures. It is however clear that sourdough-adapted microorganisms are able to withstand stress conditions encountered during their growth. Based on the technological setup, type 0 (predoughs), type I (artisan bakery firm sourdoughs), type II (industrial liquid sourdoughs), and type III sourdoughs (industrial dried sourdoughs) can be distinguished. The production of all sourdoughs, independent of their classification, depends on several intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Both the flour (type, quality status, etc.) and the process parameters (fermentation temperature, pH and pH evolution, dough yield, water activity, oxygen tension, backslopping procedure and fermentation duration, etc.) determine the dynamics and outcome of (backslopped) sourdough fermentation processes.

Abstract
A Gram-reaction-positive, catalase-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped lactic acid bacterium, designated strain S215(T), was isolated from fermented soybean meal. The organism produced d-lactic acid from glucose without gas formation. 16S rRNA gene sequencing results showed that strain S215(T) had 98.74-99.60 % sequence similarity to the type strains of three species of the genus Lactobacillus (Lactobacillus farciminis BCRC 14043(T), Lactobacillus futsaii BCRC 80278(T) and Lactobacillus crustorum JCM 15951(T)). A comparison of two housekeeping genes, rpoA and pheS, revealed that strain S215(T) was well separated from the reference strains of species of the genus Lactobacillus. DNA-DNA hybridization results indicated that strain S215(T) had DNA related to the three type strains of species of the genus Lactobacillus (33-66 % relatedness). The DNA G+C content of strain S215(T) was 36.2 mol%. The cell walls contained peptidoglycan of the d-meso-diaminopimelic acid type and the major fatty acids were C18 : 1ω9c, C16 : 0 and C19 : 0 cyclo ω10c/C19 : 1ω6c. Phenotypic and genotypic features demonstrated that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Lactobacillus, for which the name Lactobacillus formosensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S215(T) ( = NBRC 109509(T) = BCRC 80582(T)).

Abstract
Sourdough is a specific and stressful ecosystem inhabited by yeasts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB), mainly heterofermentative lactobacilli. On the basis of their inocula, three types of sourdough fermentation processes can be distinguished, namely backslopped ones, those initiated with starter cultures, and those initiated with a starter culture followed by backslopping. Typical sourdough LAB species are Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus paralimentarius, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis. Typical sourdough yeast species are Candida humilis, Kazachstania exigua, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Whereas region specificity is claimed in the case of artisan backslopped sourdoughs, no clear-cut relationship between a typical sourdough and its associated microbiota can be found, as this is dependent on the sampling, isolation, and identification procedures. Both simple and very complex consortia may occur. Moreover, a series of intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the composition of the sourdough microbiota. For instance, an influence of the flour (type, quality status, etc.) and the process parameters (temperature, pH, dough yield, backslopping practices, etc.) occurs. In this way, the presence of Lb. sanfranciscensis during sourdough fermentation depends on specific environmental and technological factors. Also, Triticum durum seems to select for obligately heterofermentative LAB species. Finally, there are indications that the sourdough LAB are of intestinal origin.

Abstract
Composting operations are a rich source for prospection of biomass degradation enzymes. We have analyzed the microbiomes of two composting samples collected in a facility inside the São Paulo Zoo Park, in Brazil. All organic waste produced in the park is processed in this facility, at a rate of four tons/day. Total DNA was extracted and sequenced with Roche/454 technology, generating about 3 million reads per sample. To our knowledge this work is the first report of a composting whole-microbial community using high-throughput sequencing and analysis. The phylogenetic profiles of the two microbiomes analyzed are quite different, with a clear dominance of members of the Lactobacillus genus in one of them. We found a general agreement of the distribution of functional categories in the Zoo compost metagenomes compared with seven selected public metagenomes of biomass deconstruction environments, indicating the potential for different bacterial communities to provide alternative mechanisms for the same functional purposes. Our results indicate that biomass degradation in this composting process, including deconstruction of recalcitrant lignocellulose, is fully performed by bacterial enzymes, most likely by members of the Clostridiales and Actinomycetales orders.

Abstract
A novel bacterium was isolated from a traditional fermented food, kimchi. The morphology, physiology, biochemical properties and 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain L133T were studied. Strain L133T was Gram-reaction-positive, catalase-negative and homofermentative, with rod-shaped cells that formed cream colonies. Cells grew in the presence of 0–5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1–2 %), at pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0) and at 15–37 °C (optimum, 25 °C). Comparative 16S rRNA gene and pheS sequence analysis of strain L133T indicated that the strain belonged to the genus
Lactobacillus
. The major fatty acids were identified as C18 : 1ω9c, C16 : 0 and C18 : 0, and the cell wall contained peptidoglycan of the l-Lys–d-Asp type. DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain L133T and related species were below 11±0.4 %. The DNA G+C content of strain L133T was 35.7 mol%. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, as well as physiological and biochemical tests, identified genotypic and phenotypic differences between strain L133T and other species of the genus
Lactobacillus
. Based on these analyses, strain L133T is proposed to be a novel species of the genus
Lactobacillus
, named Lactobacillus kimchiensis. The type strain is L133T ( = KACC 15533T = JCM 17702T = DSM 24716T).

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-positive strains were isolated from fermented mustard and were rod-shaped, non-motile, asporogenous, facultatively anaerobic, homofermentative and did not exhibit catalase activity. Comparative analyses of 16S rRNA, pheS and rpoA gene sequences demonstrated that the novel strains were members of the genus Lactobacillus. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the type strains of Lactobacillus crustorum (98.7 % similarity), Lactobacillus farciminis (98.9 %) and Lactobacillus mindensis (97.9 %) were the closest neighbours. However, DNA–DNA reassociation values with these strains were less than 50 %. Phenotypic and genotypic features demonstrated that these isolates represent a novel species of the genus Lactobacillus, for which the name Lactobacillus futsaii sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is YM 0097T ( = JCM 17355T = BCRC 80278T).

Sourdoughs were prepared either from flours of the cereals wheat, rye, oat, barley, rice, maize, and millet, or from the pseudocereals amaranth, quinoa, and buckwheat, or from cassava, using a starter consisting of various species of LAB and yeasts. Doughs were propagated until a stable microbiota was established. The dominant LAB and yeast species were Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus paralimentarius, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus pontis, Lactobacillus spicheri, Issatchenkia orientalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The proportion of the species within the microbiota varied. L. paralimentarius dominated in the pseudocereal sourdoughs, L. fermentum, L. plantarum and L. spicheri in the cassava sourdough, and L. fermentum, L. helveticus and L. pontis in the cereal sourdoughs. S. cerevisiae constituted the dominating yeast, except for quinoa sourdough, where I. orientalis also reached similar counts, and buckwheat and oat sourdoughs, where no yeasts could be detected. To assess the usefulness of competitive LAB and yeasts as starters, the fermentations were repeated using flours from rice, maize, millet and the pseudocereals, and by starting the dough fermentation with selected dominant strains. At the end of fermentation, most of starter strains belonged to the dominating microbiota. For the rice, millet and quinoa sourdoughs the species composition was similar to that of the prior fermentation, whereas in the other sourdoughs, the composition differed.

Abstract
Four types of sourdoughs (L, C, B, Q) from artisanal bakeries in Northern Italy were studied using culture-dependent and culture-independent methods. In all samples, the yeast numbers ranged from 160 to 10(7)cfu/g, and the numbers of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) ranged from 10(3) to 10(9)cfu/g. The isolated LAB were sequenced, and a similarity was noted between two samples (C, Q), both in terms of the species that were present and in terms of the percentage of isolates. In these two samples, Lactobacillus plantarum accounted for 73% and 89% of the bacteria, and Lactobacillus brevis represented 27% and 11%. In the third sample (B), however, the dominant LAB isolate was Lb. brevis (73%), while Lb. plantarum accounted for only 27%. The fourth sourdough (L) was completely different from the others. In this sample, the most prominent isolate was Weisella cibaria (56%), followed by Lb. plantarum (36%) and Pediococcus pentosaceus (8%). In three out of four samples (L, C and Q), all of the yeasts isolated were identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, yet only Candida humilis (90%) and Candida milleri (10%) were isolated in the fourth sample (B). The microbial ecology of the sourdoughs was also examined with direct methods. The results obtained by culture-independent methods and DGGE analysis underline a partial correspondence between the DNA and RNA analysis. These results demonstrate the importance of using a combined analytical approach to explore the microbial communities of sourdoughs.

Abstract
A culture-based approach was used to investigate the diversity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in Belgian traditional sourdoughs and to assess the influence of flour type, bakery environment, geographical origin, and technological characteristics on the taxonomic composition of these LAB communities. For this purpose, a total of 714 LAB from 21 sourdoughs sampled at 11 artisan bakeries throughout Belgium were subjected to a polyphasic identification approach. The microbial composition of the traditional sourdoughs was characterized by bacteriological culture in combination with genotypic identification methods, including repetitive element sequence-based PCR fingerprinting and phenylalanyl-tRNA synthase (pheS) gene sequence analysis. LAB from Belgian sourdoughs belonged to the genera Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, Leuconostoc, Weissella, and Enterococcus, with the heterofermentative species Lactobacillus paralimentarius, Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Lactobacillus pontis as the most frequently isolated taxa. Statistical analysis of the identification data indicated that the microbial composition of the sourdoughs is mainly affected by the bakery environment rather than the flour type (wheat, rye, spelt, or a mixture of these) used. In conclusion, the polyphasic approach, based on rapid genotypic screening and high-resolution, sequence-dependent identification, proved to be a powerful tool for studying the LAB diversity in traditional fermented foods such as sourdough.
