Torulaspora delbrueckii presents metabolic features interesting for biotechnological applications (in the dairy and wine industries). Recently, the T. delbrueckii CBS 1146 genome, which has been maintained under laboratory conditions since 1970, was published. Thus, a genome of a new mezcal yeast was sequenced and characterized and showed genetic differences and a higher genome assembly quality, offering a better reference genome.

Yeasts play a crucial role in determining the quality and yield of sauce-flavor Baijiu, yet the source, succession, and metabolic functions of the yeast community in fermented grains during stacking fermentation remains unclear. In this study, amplicon sequencing combined with solid-state fermentation was used to investigate the structure and function of yeast community during the first-round fermentation of sauce-flavor Baijiu. The richness and diversity of yeast community increased throughout fermentation, with 83.

Pectinolytic enzymes secreted by yeasts have an untapped potential in industry, particularly in wine-making. This study addresses the limitations of the current screening methods in reliably predicting the capacity of pectinolytic yeast strains to secrete polygalacturonase (PGase) under industrial conditions, suggesting a novel screening approach. Using the context of wine-making as an example, a diverse collection of 512 yeast strains from 17 species was analyzed for PGase secretion, a key enzyme in pectinolysis.

This study investigates the effect of maceration and different winemaking techniques on the species diversity of yeasts in white wines from the Slovak Tokay wine region, known for its traditional white wine production. Lipovina grape variety samples were divided into three groups: control (C), macerated (M) and macerated with the addition of a yeast culture (MY). During the entire fermentation process, quantitative and qualitative microbiological analyses of the raw material and must samples were carried out, which resulted in the identification of 60 yeast isolates via the API 20 C AUX biochemical test and MALDI-TOF MS.

The airing process of sauce-flavor Baijiu is a critical operation that serves the functions of cooling, homogenizing, and facilitating microbial proliferation and metabolism. Comprehensive analysis of physicochemical parameters, bacterial and fungal community of fermented grains, and volatile flavor compounds of soy-sauce (Jiangxiang) and mellow-sweet (Chuntian) typical base liquors among traditional (CT) and two different mechanized (JXA and JXB) airing operations were investigated. The results indicated that the dynamic variation patterns of moisture content, total titratable acidity, starch content, lactic acid, acetic acid, pH, and dominated microbial composition among CT, JXA, and JXB were similar, while minor bacterial genera with relative abundance including unclassified Micrococcineae, unclassified Rhizobiales, etc, and dominated fungi such as Torulaspora, Hyphopichia, Candida, Pichia, and Penicillium were profoundly influenced by mechanized airing operations, especially by JXB.

As a well-commercialized and utilized non-Saccharomyces yeast, Torulaspora delbruineckii is gaining increasing relevance in the winemaking industry. However, its ability to produce distinctive aromas in wine has been inconsistently reported in the literature. This study aimed to evaluate the fermentation performance and aroma properties of T.
