Biocontrol Ability and Action Mechanism of Starmerella bacillaris (Synonym Candida zemplinina) Isolated from Wine Musts against Gray Mold Disease Agent Botrytis cinerea on Grape and Their Effects on Alcoholic Fermentation [PDF]
Gray mold is one of the most important diseases of grapevine in temperate climates. This plant pathogen affects plant growth and reduces wine quality. The use of yeasts as biocontrol agents to apply in the vineyard have been investigated in recent years ...

Historical contingency in species interactions: towards niche-based predictions. [PDF]
The way species affect one another in ecological communities often depends on the order of species arrival. The magnitude of such historical contingency, known as priority effects, varies across species and environments, but this variation has proven ...

Evaluation of behaviour of Lachancea thermotolerans biocontrol agents on grape fermentations [PDF]
Previous researches have showed that Lachancea thermotolerans strains RCKT4 and RCKT5 inhibited the growth of Aspergillus. However, currently, there are no data on their nutritional preferences, as a possible substrate competitor against Saccharomyces ...

Upgrading Non-Conventional Yeasts into Valuable Biofactories
The use of synthetic biology on yeasts has enhanced the production of commercially relevant chemicals, from biofuels to recombinant therapeutic proteins, to name just a few. Despite most of these advances had already been studied and described in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, during the last years the attention has turned to the use of alternative ...

Domestication signatures in the non-conventional yeastLachancea cidri
AbstractEvaluating domestication signatures beyond model organisms is essential for thoroughly understanding the genotype-phenotype relationship in wild and human-related environments. Structural variations (SVs) can significantly impact phenotypes playing an important role in the physiological adaptation of species to different niches, including ...

Study of the Fermentation Characteristics of Non-Conventional Yeast Strains in Sweet Dough
Despite the diverse functions of yeast, only a relatively homogenous group of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts is used in the baking industry. Much of the potential of the natural diversity of yeasts has not been explored, and the sensory complexity of ...

Non-conventional Saccharomyces yeasts for beer production
Beer is a world-famous beverage, second only to tea and coffee, where the yeasts traditionally used are Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces pastorianus for the production of ale and lager beer, respectively. Their production, especially craft beer production, has grown in recent years, as has the development of new products.
