Yeast ecology of vineyards within Marsala wine area (western Sicily) in two consecutive vintages and selection of autochthonous Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains [PDF]

, 2012
In this work, the yeast ecology associated with the spontaneous fermentation of Grillo cultivar grapes from 10 vineyards was analyzed from grape harvest till complete consumption of must sugars.

Use of Yeasts for the Biological Control of Toxigenic Aspergillus sp. Associated With Zea mays L.

International Journal of Food Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Zea mays “maize” is one of the most important staple foods for both humans and animals, but it is highly susceptible to pathogens such as toxigenic Aspergillus flavus. Yeasts, however, have the potential to control the growth and activity of toxigenic fungi, representing a viable and economical alternative for biocontrol.

Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 23: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until September 2025

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of relevant knowledge and safety of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.

Probiotic Yeasts and How to Find Them—Polish Wines of Spontaneous Fermentation as Source for Potentially Probiotic Yeasts

Foods, 2023
One approach towards maintaining healthy microbiota in the human gastrointestinal tract is through the consumption of probiotics. Until now, the majority of probiotic research has focused on probiotic bacteria, but over the last few years more and more ...

Enzyme contribution of non-Saccharomyces yeasts to wine production [PDF]

, 2015
The fermentation of grape must to produce wine is a biologically complex process, carried on by yeasts and malolactic bacteria. The yeasts present in spontaneous fermentation may be divided into two groups, the Saccharomyces yeasts, particularly S ...

Antagonistic activity of two yeasts against Penicillium expansum in stone fruits

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 15, Page 8878-8887, December 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND Stone fruits are vulnerable to contamination by Penicillium expansum (PE), a patulin‐producing mould. The use of yeasts as biocontrol agents could be an effective strategy to combat this pathogen. This study evaluated the ability of Metschnikowia pulcherrima L672 (L672) and Pichia kudriavzevii L40 (L40) as biocontrol strategies on ...

Nitrogen Preferences during Alcoholic Fermentation of Different Non-Saccharomyces Yeasts of Oenological Interest

Microorganisms, 2020
Non-Saccharomyces yeasts have long been considered spoilage microorganisms. Currently, oenological interest in those species is increasing, mostly due to their positive contribution to wine quality.

Whole‐Genome Sequencing and Phenotyping Reveal Specific Adaptations of Lachancea thermotolerans to the Winemaking Environment

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 24, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Adaptation to the environment plays an essential role in yeast evolution as a consequence of selective pressures. Lachancea thermotolerans, a yeast related to fermentation and one of the current trends in wine technology research, has undergone an anthropisation process, leading to a notable genomic and phenomic differentiation.
