Erickson Food Science Building, State College, PA 16803, USA; [email protected] (C.T.F.); [email protected] (X.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-814-863-2956 Abstract: Native microorganisms present on grapes can influence final wine quality. Chambourcin is the most abundant hybrid grape grown in Pennsylvania and is more resistant to cold temperatures and fungal diseases compared to Vitis vinifera. Here, non-Saccharomyces yeasts were isolated from spontaneously fermenting Chambourcin must from three regional vineyards. Using cultured-based methods and ITS sequencing, Hanseniaspora and Pichia spp. were the most dominant genus out of 29 fungal species identified. Five strains of Hanseniaspora uvarum, H. opuntiae, Pichia kluyveri, P. kudriavzevii, and Aureobasidium pullulans were characterized for the ability to tolerate sulfite and ethanol. Hanseniaspora opuntiae PSWCC64 and P. kudriavzevii PSWCC102 can tolerate 8–10% ethanol and were able to utilize 60–80% sugars during fermentation. Laboratory scale fermentations of candidate strain into sterile Chambourcin juice allowed for analyzing compounds associated with wine flavor. Nine nonvolatile compounds were conserved in inoculated fermentations. In contrast, Hanseniaspora strains PSWCC64 and PSWCC70 were positively correlated with 2-heptanol and ionone associated to fruity and floral odor and P. kudriazevii PSWCC102 was positively correlated with a Citation: Feng, C.T.; Du, X.; Wee, J.

Laboratory-scale single culture fermentations were performed using a commercial white grape juice. The addition of commercial nutrient products enabled us to test the yeasts under two different nutrient conditions. The addition of nutrients promoted fermentation intensity from 9% to 20 % with significant differences (p < 0.05) among the strains tested. The strain diversity together with the nutrient availability influenced the production of volatile compounds. Keywords: Torulaspora delbrueckii; volatile compounds; nutrients 1.

Natural Saccharomyces paradoxus isolates provide new dsRNA-based killer systems available for investigation. The presence of viral dsRNA may alter transcriptional profile of S. paradoxus. To test this possibility, a high-throughput RNA sequencing was employed to compare the transcriptomes of S. paradoxus AML 15-66 K66 killer strains after curing them of either M-66 alone or both M-66 and L-A-66 dsRNA viruses. The S. paradoxus cells cured of viral dsRNA(s) showed respiration deficient or altered sporulation patterns. We have identified numerous changes in the transcription profile of genes including those linked to ribosomes and amino acid biosynthesis, as well as mitochondrial function.

The effectiveness of the classical streak-based (qualitative method) and the new semiquantitative techniques was compared. The percentage of yeasts showing killer activity was found to be higher by the semiquantitative technique (60%) than by the qualitative method (45%).

  • Social Wasps Promote Social Behavior in Saccharomyces Spp
    COMMENTARY Social wasps promote social behavior in Saccharomyces spp. COMMENTARY Meredith Blackwella,b,1 and Cletus P. Kurtzmanc Production of fermented beverages and bread mak- ing represents a multibillion dollar worldwide industry (1) with its origins linked to the Middle East nearly 10,000 y ago (2). Despite this long history, the cause of fermentation was not discovered until the pioneer- ing work beginning in the middle of the 19th century when Louis Pasteur demonstrated that fermentation is yeast-mediated. The long-term questions have been which yeast and where did it come from? The name selected for the wine fermentation yeast was Saccha- romyces cerevisiae, but based on phenotype, it appeared that there were related fermentative spe- cies. Early studies from DNA reassociation (3) and from gene sequencing (4) verified this premise and demon- strated that additional species of Saccharomyces were involved in fermentation, such as Saccharomyces uva- rum for lager beers. DNA sequence evidence sup- ports the use of S. cerevisiae in wine making in Egypt 5,000 y ago (5). Unresolved has been an under- standing of the natural habitat of Saccharomyces spe- cies. It has been proposed that S. cerevisiae evolved into a domesticated species found only in wineries and associated vineyards, but the discovery of Saccha- romyces species on tree bark has raised the intriguing possibility that S. cerevisiae and related species have a Fig. 1. Several studies surveyed yeasts present in the gut or on the surface of natural habitat associated with forest trees (6). More various insects. The work of Stefanini et al.
