Currently, fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are converted from sucrose by purified enzymes or fungal cells, but these methods are costly and time-consuming. Here, the optimal fermentation conditions for strain E326 were determined through fermentation optimization: initial glucose 200 g/L, NaCl 25 g/L, inoculum volume 20 %, dissolved oxygen 20-30 %, pH 3, and glucose feeding concentration 100 g/L, which increased erythritol titer by 1.5 times. The co-expression of HGT1 and APC11 genes alleviated the erythritol synthesis stagnation, shorten the fermentation time by 16.7 %, and increased the erythritol productivity by 17.2 %. The episomal plasmids based on yeast mitochondrial replication origins (mtORIs) were constructed to surface display fructosyltransferase, effectively utilizing waste yeast cells generated during erythritol fermentation. Under the conditions of 60℃ and pH 6, the FOS yield reached 65 %, which to our best of knowledge is so-far the highest yield of FOS obtained. These findings will contribute to the industrial production of erythritol and FOS.
