Profiling of Fungal Diversity and Fermentative Yeasts in Traditional Chinese Xiaoqu.

ABSTRACT: To increase the safety and quality of baijiu and rice wine in China, controlling the use of traditional Xiaoqu by studying the beneficial yeasts present has recently been considered. The fungal diversity of six Chinese Xiaoqu including five traditional and one commercial samples was investigated to screen fermentative yeasts with low yields of higher alcohols. A high throughput sequencing approach detected fifteen fungal species with relative abundance higher than 1%, and displayed dissimilarities of fungal diversity among Xiaoqu samples. The 15 fungal species were composed of 11 filamentous fungi with Rhizopus arrhizus as the most common specie and four yeast species, containing Hyphopichia burtonii, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomycopsis f
