Determination of the variations in the metabolic profiles and bacterial communities during traditional craftsmanship Liupao tea processing.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the metabolic profiles of traditional craftsmanship (TC) Liupao tea presented great changes at different processing stages. The contents of flavonoids and their glycosides generally exhibited a continuing downward trend, resulting in the sensory quality of TC-Liupao tea gradually improved. However, the taste of TC-Liupao tea faded when piling exceeded 12 h, as a result of the excessive degradation of some key flavor substances. Therefore, it could be deduced that piling for 10 h might be optimum for the quality formation of TC-Liupao tea. Sphingomonas, Acrobacter, Microbacterium, and Methylobacterium were the dominant bacteria during piling. The correlation analysis between differential metabolites and bacteria showed that only Sphingomonas
