Unlabelled: A novel strain, designated BJN0001, was isolated from the cellar mud of Chinese strong-flavor baijiu. The complete genome of strain BJN0001 was 2,688,791 bp and annotated with 2610 genes. Whole-genome similarity metrics such as average nucleotide identity (ANI) of BJN0001 with reference genomes reveals clear species boundaries of < 95% ANI value for species. The DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH) values of BJN0001 with the type species were all lower than 70% DDH value for species. Based on these results, the strain BJN0001 was considered a potentially new species of the genus . Meanwhile, the fermentation characteristics indicated that the strain had the capability to convert glucose to ethanol, acetic acid and butyric acid, which could provide basic data for revealing its function in baijiu fermentation.

is an important microbial component in pit mud due to its ability to produce alcohol and short-chain fatty acids. This study presents the characterization and taxonomy of two Gram-stain-positive, strictly anaerobic, rod-shaped mesophilic bacterial strains, designated MT-113 and MT-5, isolated from pit mud in a fermentation cellar used for producing sauce-flavour Chinese baijiu. Phylogenetic analysis based on genome and 16S rRNA gene sequences of strains MT-113 and MT-5 indicates their affiliation with the genus (Cluster I of the Clostridia), with FW431 and WLY-B-L2 as the closest related species.

Background: Global warming causes an increase in the levels of sugars in grapes and hence in ethanol after wine fermentation. Therefore, alcohol reduction is a major target in modern oenology. Deletion of the MKS1 gene, a negative regulator of the Retrograde Response pathway, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was reported to increase glycerol and reduce ethanol and acetic acid in wine.

Acids play a crucial role in enhancing the flavor of strong-aroma Baijiu, and among them, caproic acid holds significant importance in determining the flavor of the final product. However, the metabolic synthesis of caproic acid during the production process of Baijiu has received limited attention, resulting in fluctuations in caproic acid content among fermentation batches and generating production instability. Acid-producing bacteria found in the cellar mud are the primary microorganisms responsible for caproic acid synthesis, but there is a lack of research on the related microbial resources and their metabolic properties.

Article Synopsis
  • Acetaldehyde (AL) is a carcinogen that poses risks to human health and is produced from alcohol consumption, prompting a need for effective biodegradation methods.* -
  • Researchers isolated a bacterial strain, Bacillus velezensis-YW01, from a wine cellar in China that can fully degrade 1 g/L of AL within 84 hours using AL as its sole carbon source.* -
  • The study sequenced the YW01 genome, identifying specific genes involved in the biodegradation process, which could lead to advancements in microbial catalysts to combat AL pollution.*

The pit mud in the Baijiu fermentation cellar is an abundant microbial resource that is closely related to the quality of baijiu. However, many naturally existing species might be in a viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state, posing challenges to the isolation and application of functional species. Herein, a previously isolated strain from baijiu mash, Umezawaea beigongshangensis, was found to contain the rpf gene that encodes resuscitation promotion factor (Rpf).
