Microbial origin of fermented grains in different fermentation stages of Taorong-type Baijiu.

s: To investigate the origin of microbial sources of fermented grains in multiple stages of Taorong-type Baijiu and the role of multiple production environments in contributing to the microbiota of fermented grains. In this study, we used single-molecule real-time sequencing to investigate the microbial community structure of grains, Jiuqu, and brewing environments (air, tools, etc.) in a multi-stage fermentation, as well as microbial traceability of the fermented grains.

Strategies and Challenges of Microbiota Regulation in Baijiu Brewing.

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.

Combined microbiome and metabolomics analysis of Taorong-type baijiu high-temperature Daqu and medium-temperature Daqu.

Background: Daqu is an essential starter for baijiu brewing in China. However, the microbial enrichment and metabolic characteristics of Daqu formed at different fermentation temperatures are still unclear.

Methods: High-throughput sequencing technology and the non-targeted metabolomics were used to compare the microbial communities and metabolites of Taorong-type high-temperature Daqu and middle-temperature Daqu.

Screening and identification of high yield tetramethylpyrazine strains in Nongxiangxing liquor Daqu and study on the mechanism of tetramethylpyrazine production.

Background: There are few reports on the breeding of high-yielding tetramethylpyrazine (TTMP) strains in strong-flavor Daqu. In addition, studies on the mechanism of TTMP production in strains are mostly based on common physiological and biochemical indicators, and there is no report on RNA level. Therefore, in this study, a strain with high production of TTMP was screened out from strong-flavor liquor, and transcriptome sequencing analysis was performed to analyze its key metabolic pathways and key genes, and to infer the mechanism of TTMP production in the strain.

Functional microorganisms in Baijiu Daqu: Research progress and fortification strategy for application.

Daqu is a saccharifying and fermenting starter in the production of Chinese Baijiu; its quality directly affects the quality of Baijiu. The production of Daqu is highly environment-dependent, and after long-term natural domestication, it is rich in a wide variety of microorganisms with a stable composition, which provide complex and diverse enzymes and flavor (precursor) substances and microbiota for Jiupei (Fermented grains) fermentation. However, inoculation with a relatively stable microbial community can lead to a certain upper limit or deficiencies of the physicochemical properties (e.

Optimization of fermentation technology for composite fruit and vegetable wine by response surface methodology and analysis of its aroma components.

Fruit wine has certain health care functions, but fruit wine made from a single fruit or vegetable does not have a good enough color, flavor or nutrient composition. Therefore, this study used fresh carrot ( subsp. ) and pomegranate () as raw materials to explore the brewing process of carrot and pomegranate compound wine.

Taorong-type Baijiu starter: Analysis of fungal community and metabolic characteristics of middle-temperature Daqu and high-temperature Daqu.

To study the difference between the fungal community compositional and fragrance components in medium- and high-Temperature Taorong-type Baijiu Daqu. The microbial communities and fragrance components of Taorong-type Baijiu Daqu were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing (HTS) and headspace-solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). With an abundance at the phylum and genus levels ≥0.

Methyl jasmonate alleviates chilling injury and keeps intact pericarp structure of pomegranate during low temperature storage.

Pomegranate is a kind of fruit with low temperature sensitivity. Abnormal low temperature can easily lead to chilling injury, which negatively impacts the appearance of fruit, accelerates browning and deterioration, as well as seriously reduces the consumption quality and commodity value of pomegranate. This study was carried out to determine the effect of methyl jasmonate on chilling injury of pomegranate during low temperature storage.
