Shifts in autochthonous microbial diversity and volatile metabolites during the fermentation of chili pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.)

Xinxing Xu et al.

Summary: Through high-throughput sequencing and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of the 32-day fermentation process of chili peppers, dominant bacterial genera such as Rosenbergiella and Staphylococcus, and abundant fungi genera such as Hyphopichia and Kodamaea were identified. Additionally, sixteen differential volatile metabolites were detected, and nine strains from different genera were isolated from fermented chili peppers. Further analysis indicated a significant positive correlation between Hyphopichia and the formation of 11 key odorants, enhancing our understanding of core functional bacterial and fungal genera involved in the desirable flavor production in fermented chili peppers.

Diversity and dynamics of fungi during spontaneous fermentations and association with unique aroma profiles in wine

Di Liu et al.

Summary: Microbial ecology in an agricultural ecosystem influences grapevine health, crop production, and wine aroma and flavor formation. Geographic origin and grape variety significantly influence the differentiation of fungi, yeasts, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae during fermentation, ultimately shaping the wine aroma profiles. The geographic distribution of microbial communities suggests that fermentative yeast can be distinct in a local setting, with implications for sustainable agricultural practices and beverage quality.

Sugar profile regulates the microbial metabolic diversity in Chinese Baijiu fermentation

Zheng Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the regulation of sugar profile on microbial diversity and metabolism in Chinese Baijiu fermentation using sorghum as raw material. Glucose, fructose, and arabinose were identified as key sugars driving microbial and metabolic diversity during fermentation. The metabolic diversity significantly increased with optimized levels of these sugars, providing a strategy to control microbial metabolism and improve the quality of fermented foods.

Metabolic cooperation and spatiotemporal niche partitioning in a kefir microbial community

Sonja Blasche et al.

Summary: This study explores how kefir achieves stable coexistence through spatial and temporal orchestration of species and metabolite dynamics. The kefir grains remain unchanged in composition during milk fermentation, while the milk is colonized in a sequential manner by different microorganisms.

Polarization of microbial communities between competitive and cooperative metabolism

Daniel Machado et al.

Summary: The study shows that microbial communities cluster at different ends of the spectrum between resource competition and metabolic cooperation. Cooperative communities tend to have smaller genomes and multiple auxotrophies, whereas competitive communities have larger genomes, overlapping niches, and a high potential for antimicrobial activity.

Bacterial diversity and flavor profile of Zha-Chili, a traditional fermented food in China

Wenchao Cai et al.

Summary: The traditional Chinese fermented food, zha-chili, has a special flavor and serves as an important energy source. The microbial community structure plays a crucial role in determining the final quality of zha-chili. This study investigated the bacterial diversity and flavor quality of zha-chili samples from different regions, revealing significant differences in bacterial community structure and flavor profiles, as well as correlations between dominant bacterial genera and flavor indicators.

Specialized metabolic functions of keystone taxa sustain soil microbiome stability

Weibing Xun et al.

Summary: The study revealed that bacterial communities with higher phylogenetic diversity tend to be more stable, indicating that microbiomes with higher biodiversity are more resilient to disturbances. Functional gene co-occurrence network and machine learning classification analyses identified specialized metabolic functions, especially nitrogen metabolism and phosphonate and phosphinate metabolism, as key functions. Further taxonomic annotation revealed that these key functions are carried out by specific bacterial taxa, including Nitrospira and Gemmatimonas.

Characteristics of bacterial and yeast microbiomes in spontaneous and mixed-fermentation beer and cider

Alexander Tyakht et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the bacterial and yeast microbiomes in beer and cider products, using high-throughput sequencing methods and advanced data analysis tools. Results showed complex microbial communities with diverse origins, including starter microorganisms and those from production environment and raw materials. The research provided valuable insights into non-conventional beer and cider microbiomes, which could lead to improved quality control processes and innovative product development in the brewing industry.

Can we control microbiota in spontaneous food fermentation? ? Chinese liquor as a case example

Qun Wu et al.

Summary: This review focuses on the key biotechnological aspects of microbiota crucial for flavor formation in fermented foods, using Chinese liquor as a model system. Core microbiota associated with flavor formation can be identified and used to construct a synthetic microbiota, while key environmental factors affecting the core microbiota can be controlled to regulate the synthetic microbiota. Modelling can be used to predict, optimize, and control flavor compound formation by the synthetic microbiota to improve the quality, productivity, and safety of fermented foods.
