Sequence analysis of the D1/D2 domain of 26S rDNA was conducted upon seven Arthroascus strains from different geographic localities. The European and Asian species Arthroascus schoenii was documented from the North-American continent and from the Island of Hawaii. We discuss the heterogeneity of the genus Saccharomycopsis sensu Kurtzman and Robnett 1995. On the basis of molecular and genetic data the genus Arthroascus von Arx is reinstated.

In the yeast genera Saccharomycopsis and Ascoidea, which comprise the taxonomic order Ascoideales, nuclear genes use a nonstandard genetic code in which CUG codons are translated as serine instead of leucine, due to a tRNA-Ser with the unusual anticodon CAG. However, some species in this clade also retain an ancestral tRNA-Leu gene with the same anticodon. One of these species, Ascoidea asiatica, has been shown to have a stochastic proteome in which proteins contain ∼50% Ser and 50% Leu at CUG codon sites, whereas previously examined Saccharomycopsis species translate CUG only as Ser.

Temperature plays a critical role in the performance of microbial communities during traditional solid-state fermentation. However, it remains unknown how temperature shapes microbiota, metabolism, and their relationship in Daqu fermentation. Here, we investigated the response of Daqu microbiota and metabolites to temperature by actual Daqu fermentation and simulated fermentation.
