Isolation, identification, and tolerance analysis of yeast during the natural fermentation process of Sidamo coffee beans.

Yeast, which plays a pivotal role in the brewing, food, and medical industries, exhibits a close relationship with human beings. In this study, we isolated and purified 60 yeast strains from the natural fermentation broth of Sidamo coffee beans to screen for indigenous beneficial yeasts. Among them, 25 strains were obtained through morphological characterization on nutritional agar medium from Wallerstein Laboratory (WL), with molecular biology identifying Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain YBB-47 and the remaining 24 yeast strains identified as Pichia kudriavzevii.

Investigation on screening, identification, and fermentation characteristics of Yunnan olive in the fermented liquid utilizing five strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Refined indigenous Saccharomyces cerevisiae can enhance refinement, sophistication, and subtlety of fruit wines by showcasing exceptional regional characteristics. In order to identify exceptional indigenous S. cerevisiae strains from Yunnan olive, this study isolated 60 yeast strains from wild Yunnan olive fermentation mash.

Psychromicrobium Xiongbiense sp. nov., an Actinobacterium Isolated from Forest Soil.

A novel Gram-stain-positive, oval-shaped, and non-flagellated bacterial strain YIM S02556 was isolated from forest soil in Xiongbi Town, Shizong County, Qujing City, Yunnan Province, southwestern China. The strain exhibited high pairwise 16 S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Psychromicrobium lacuslunae (97.3%) and Psychromicrobium silvestre (96.

Cultivar-specific response of rhizosphere bacterial community to uptake of cadmium and mineral elements in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

Toxic metal-contaminated farmland from Cadmium (Cd) can enhance the accumulation of Cd and impair the absorption of mineral elements in brown rice. Although several studies have been conducted on Cd exposure on rice, little has been reported on the relationship between Cd and mineral elements in brown rice and the regulatory mechanism of rhizosphere microorganisms during element uptake. Thus, a field study was undertaken to screen japonica rice cultivars with low Cd and high mineral elements levels, analyze the quantitative relationship between Cd and seven mineral elements, and investigate the cultivar-specific response of rice rhizosphere bacterial communities to differences in Cd and mineral uptake in japonica rice.

Selection of low-cadmium and high-micronutrient wheat cultivars and exploration of the relationship between agronomic traits and grain cadmium.

The cadmium (Cd) and micronutrient contents in grains were used as screening indicators through a pot experiment, and the hierarchical cluster analysis was used to select wheat cultivars with low Cd and high micronutrient contents. The potential human health risks caused by wheat intake and the relationship between the Cd concentration in wheat grains and 12 agronomic traits were also investigated using the risk assessment model and logistic equation fitting, respectively. Yannong-23, Zhongmmai-175, and Luyuan-502, the main wheat cultivars promoted in the Huang-Huai-Hai region of China, were screened for low Cd accumulation and high micronutrient.

Screening stably low cadmium and moderately high micronutrients wheat cultivars under three different agricultural environments of China.

Heavy metal-contaminated farmland, especially for cadmium (Cd), is being used for agricultural production in large scale due to the increasing food demand. Thus, minimizing the influx of Cd to the human food chain is urgently needed. Screening for stably low Cd and moderately high micronutrient wheat cultivars is one of the most feasible and effective approaches to ensure food safety and quality.
