Molecular and Physiological Diversity of Indigenous Yeasts Isolated from Spontaneously Fermented Wine Wort from Ilfov County, Romania.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: Wine yeast research offers the possibility of isolating new strains with distinct metabolic properties due to the geographical location of the vineyard and the processes used in winemaking. Our study deals with the isolation and identification of six yeasts from spontaneously fermented wine wort from Romania and their characterization as new potential starter culture for traditional beverages, for food industry or biomedicine. (2) Materials and methods: The isolates were identified using conventional taxonomy tests, phenotypic phylogeny analysis (Biolog YT), MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, PCR-RFLP, and sequencing of the ITS1-5,8S-ITS2 rDNA region. The capacity of the yeasts to grow under thermal, ionic, and osmotic stress was determined. The safe status was confirmed by testi
