In this paper we describe the development of a PCR protocol to specifically detect Brettanomyces bruxellensis and B. anomalus. Primers DB90F and DB394R, targeting the D1-D2 loop of the 26S rRNA gene, were able to produce amplicons only when the DNA from these two species were used. No amplification product was obtained when DNA from other Brettanomyces spp. or wine yeasts were used as the templates. The 305-bp product was subjected to restriction enzyme analysis with DdeI to differentiate between B. bruxellensis and B. anomalus, and each species could be identified on the basis of the different restriction profiles. After optimization of the method by using strains from international collections, wine isolates were tested with the method proposed. Total agreement between traditional identification and molecular identification was observed. The protocol developed was also used for direct detection of B. bruxellensis and B. anomalus in wines suspected to be spoiled by Brettanomyces spp. Application of culture-based and molecular methods led us to the conclusion that 8 of 12 samples were spoiled by B. bruxellensis. Results based on the application of molecular methods suggested that two of the eight positive samples had been infected more recently, since specific signals were obtained at both the DNA and RNA levels.  相似文献

A new fluorescence in situ hybridization method using peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes for identification of Brettanomyces is described. The test is based on fluorescein-labeled PNA probes targeting a species-specific sequence of the rRNA of Dekkera bruxellensis. The PNA probes were applied to smears of colonies, and results were interpreted by fluorescence microscopy. The results obtained from testing 127 different yeast strains, including 78 Brettanomyces isolates from wine, show that the spoilage organism Brettanomyces belongs to the species D. bruxellensis and that the new method is able to identify Brettanomyces (D. bruxellensis) with 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity.  相似文献

Brettanomyces yeasts, with the species Brettanomyces (Dekkera) bruxellensis being the most important one, are generally reported to be spoilage yeasts in the beer and wine industry due to the production of phenolic off flavors. However, B. bruxellensis is also known to be a beneficial contributor in certain fermentation processes, such as the production of certain specialty beers. Nevertheless, despite its economic importance, Brettanomyces yeasts remain poorly understood at the genetic and genomic levels. In this study, the genetic relationship between more than 50 Brettanomyces strains from all presently known species and from several sources was studied using a combination of DNA fingerprinting techniques. This revealed an intriguing correlation between the B. bruxellensis fingerprints and the respective isolation source. To further explore this relationship, we sequenced a (beneficial) beer isolate of B. bruxellensis (VIB X9085; ST05.12/22) and compared its genome sequence with the genome sequences of two wine spoilage strains (AWRI 1499 and CBS 2499). ST05.12/22 was found to be substantially different from both wine strains, especially at the level of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In addition, there were major differences in the genome structures between the strains investigated, including the presence of large duplications and deletions. Gene content analysis revealed the presence of 20 genes which were present in both wine strains but absent in the beer strain, including many genes involved in carbon and nitrogen metabolism, and vice versa, no genes that were missing in both AWRI 1499 and CBS 2499 were found in ST05.12/22. Together, this study provides tools to discriminate Brettanomyces strains and provides a first glimpse at the genetic diversity and genome plasticity of B. bruxellensis.  相似文献

Aims: The objectives of this research were to (i) optimize the concentration of cycloheximide for use in WL media used in the wine industry and (ii) evaluate Dekkera/Brettanomyces differential medium (DBDM) as a means to detect Dekkera. Methods and Results: Dekkera bruxellensis and other yeasts were transferred into WL broths containing 0, 10, 50 or 100 mg l?1 of cycloheximide. While several grew in 10 mg l?1, only Hanseniaspora uvarum, Pichia guillermondii, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and D. bruxellensis tolerated ≥50 mg l?1 of the antibiotic. On solidified WL media after 8‐days incubation, colony sizes of two strains of D. bruxellensis (B1b and ATCC 52905) decreased with increased concentrations of cycloheximide, while others (F3 and P2) were unaffected. Although D. bruxellensis B1b did not grow well on another selective medium, DBDM, colony development was improved by the addition of sterilized red wine. Conclusions: Of the concentrations tested, 50 mg l?1 cycloheximide inhibited many grape/wine yeasts yet generally yielded countable colonies of Dekkera (1–2·5 mm diameter). Several strains of Dekkera did not grow well on DBDM, probably due to the lack of an unidentified nutrient(s). Significance and Impact of the Study: Better media formulations will improve the detection of Dekkera, thereby increasing microbiological control during winemaking.  相似文献

Dekkera and Brettanomyces yeast are important spoilage organisms in a number of food and beverage products. Isolates of both genera were cultured in a defined medium and supplemented with hydroxycinnamic acids and vinylphenols to investigate their influence on growth and the formation of ethyl phenol derivatives. The growth rate of Brettanomyces species in the presence of acids was reduced, and no significant conversion to vinyl or ethyl derivatives was observed. The growth rate and substrate utilisation rates of Dekkera anomala and Dekkera bruxellensis yeast differed depending on strain and the acid precursor present. Growth of D. bruxellensis was slowed by the presence of ferulic acid with the addition of 1 mM ferulic acid completely inhibiting growth. This study provides an insight into the spoilage potential of these organisms and possible control strategies involving hydroxycinnamic acids.  相似文献

Food and beverage industries require rapid tests to limit economic losses and one way to do so is via molecular tests. In the present work, DNA capture and secondary probes, were designed to target the ITS (Internal Transcribed) sequences of Brettanomyces bruxellensis, a yeast responsible for the production of off flavours in both wine and beer. ITS1 and ITS2 were found to contain distinct regions with sufficient sequence divergence to make them suitable as specific identification target sites. The dot blot technique was used to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the capture probe. Both probes were, thereafter, adapted to construct an optical fibre genosensor, which produced neither false positives nor false negatives, and was both repeatable and faster with respect to traditional methods, the latter requiring at least one week to detect B. bruxellensis.  相似文献

Aims: The aim of this study was to determine sulphite tolerance for a large number of Dekkera bruxellensis isolates and evaluate the relationship between this phenotype and previously assigned genotype markers. Methods and Results: A published microplate‐based method for evaluation of yeast growth in the presence of sulphite was benchmarked against culturability following sulphite treatment, for the D. bruxellensis type strain (CBS 74) and a reference wine isolate (AWRI 1499). This method was used to estimate maximal sulphite tolerance for 41 D. bruxellensis isolates, which was found to vary over a fivefold range. Significant differences in sulphite tolerance were observed when isolates were grouped according to previously assigned genotypes and ribotypes. Conclusions: Variable sulphite tolerance for the wine spoilage yeast D. bruxellensis can be linked to genotype markers. Significance and Impact of the Study: Strategies to minimize risk of wine spoilage by D. bruxellensis must take into account at least a threefold range in effective sulphite concentration that is dependent upon the genotype group(s) present. The isolates characterized in this study will be a useful resource for establishing the mechanisms conferring sulphite tolerance for this industrially important yeast species.  相似文献

Brettanomyces/Dekkera yeasts grow in wine and their presence is often associated with spoiling activity. In this report, we investigated on the influence of different conditions of aerobiosis on growth and fermentation behaviour of these spoilage yeasts in wine. Results showed that in all conditions tested the Brettanomyces strain consumed all sugars, taking wine fermentation to completion. Strict-anaerobic conditions limited the growth of Brettanomyces. Both anaerobiosis (using a fermentation trap) and strict anaerobiosis did not negatively affect the principal by-products of fermentation whereas semi-anaerobiosis caused an increase of acetic acid, acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate that negatively affected the fermentation profile of resulting products.  相似文献

Industrial fermentation of lignocellulosic hydrolysates to ethanol requires microorganisms able to utilise a broad range of carbon sources and generate ethanol at high yield and productivity. D. bruxellensis has recently been reported to contaminate commercial ethanol processes, where it competes with Saccharomyces cerevisiae [4, 26]. In this work Brettanomyces/Dekkera yeasts were studied to explore their potential to produce ethanol from renewable sources under conditions suitable for industrial processes, such as oxygen-limited and low-pH conditions. Over 50 strains were analysed for their ability to utilise a variety of carbon sources, and some strains grew on cellobiose and pentoses. Two strains of D. bruxellensis were able to produce ethanol at high yield (0.44 g g−1 glucose), comparable to those reported for S. cerevisiae. B. naardenensis was shown to be able to produce ethanol from xylose. To obtain ethanol from synthetic lignocellulosic hydrolysates we developed a two-step fermentation strategy: the first step under aerobic conditions for fast production of biomass from mixtures of hexoses and pentoses, followed by a second step under oxygen limitation to promote ethanol production. Under these conditions we obtained biomass and ethanol production on synthetic lignocellulosic hydrolysates, with ethanol yields ranging from 0.2 to 0.3 g g−1 sugar. Hexoses, xylose and arabinose were consumed at the end of the process, resulting in 13 g l−1 of ethanol, even in the presence of furfural. Our studies showed that Brettanomyces/Dekkera yeasts have clear potential for further development for industrial processes aimed at production of ethanol from renewable sources.  相似文献

Yeasts belonging to the Brettanomyces/Dekkera genus are non-conventional yeasts, which affect winemaking by causing wine spoilage all over the world. This mini-review focuses on recent results concerning the presence of Brettanomyces bruxellensis throughout the wine processing chain. Here, culture-dependent and independent methods to detect this yeast on grapes and at the very early stage of wine production are encompassed. Chemical, physical and biological tools, devised for the prevention and control of such a detrimental species during winemaking are also presented. Finally, the mini-review identifies future research areas relevant to the improvement of wine safety and sensory profiles.  相似文献

The yeasts Zygosaccharomyces bailii, Dekkera bruxellensis (anamorph, Brettanomyces bruxellensis), and Saccharomyces cerevisiae are the major spoilage agents of finished wine. A novel method using Raman spectroscopy in combination with a chemometric classification tool has been developed for the identification of these yeast species and for strain discrimination of these yeasts. Raman spectra were collected for six strains of each of the yeasts Z. bailii, B. bruxellensis, and S. cerevisiae. The yeasts were classified with high sensitivity at the species level: 93.8% for Z. bailii, 92.3% for B. bruxellensis, and 98.6% for S. cerevisiae. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that it is possible to discriminate between strains of these species. These yeasts were classified at the strain level with an overall accuracy of 81.8%.  相似文献

Traditional methods to detect the spoilage yeast Dekkera bruxellensis from wine involve lengthy enrichments. To overcome this difficulty, we developed a quantitative real-time PCR method to directly detect and enumerate D. bruxellensis in wine. Specific PCR primers to D. bruxellensis were designed to the 26S rRNA gene, and nontarget yeast and bacteria common to the winery environment were not amplified. The assay was linear over a range of cell concentrations (6 log units) and could detect as little as 1 cell per ml in wine. The addition of large amounts of nontarget yeasts did not impact the efficiency of the assay. This method will be helpful to identify possible routes of D. bruxellensis infection in winery environments. Moreover, the time involved in performing the assay (3 h) should enable winemakers to more quickly make wine processing decisions in order to reduce the threat of spoilage by D. bruxellensis.  相似文献

Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a common and significant wine spoilage microorganism. B. bruxellensis strains generally detain the molecular basis to produce compounds that are detrimental for the organoleptic quality of the wine, including some classes of volatile phenols that derive from the sequential bioconversion of specific hydroxycinnamic acids such as ferulate and p-coumarate. Although B. bruxellensis can be detected at any stage of the winemaking process, it is typically isolated at the end of the alcoholic fermentation (AF), before the staring of the spontaneous malolactic fermentation (MLF) or during barrel aging. For this reason, the endemic diffusion of B. bruxellensis leads to consistent economic losses in the wine industry. Considering the interest in reducing sulfur dioxide use during winemaking, in recent years, biological alternatives, such as the use of tailored selected yeast and bacterial strains inoculated to promote AF and MLF, are actively sought as biocontrol agents to avoid the “Bretta” character in wines. Here, we review the importance of dedicated characterization and selection of starter cultures for AF and MLF in wine, in order to reduce or prevent both growth of B. bruxellensis and its production of volatile phenols in the matrix.

Viability and culturability of eight Dekkera bruxellensis strains in wine along with the accumulation of volatile phenols in response to increasing concentrations of molecular sulphur dioxide (mSO2) were investigated. mSO2 concentrations up to 1 mg/L induced the non-culturable state of a portion of the population in all the strains to a different extent for each strain, although the cells were still viable. At 1.4 mg/L mSO2, cells were non-culturable, though 0.38–29.01 % of cells retained their viability. When exposed to 2.1 mg/L mSO2, viable cells were not detected. Up to 0.24 mg/L 4-vinylguaiacol and up to 0.73 mg/L 4-ethylphenol were accumulated by non-culturable and dead Dekkera bruxellensis strains, respectively. The concentration of mSO2 needed for the transition from viable to non-culturable state of D. bruxellensis strains was higher in wine than in synthetic wine medium. The volatile phenols accumulated in wine were different from those produced in synthetic wine medium, although their accumulation kinetics were similar.  相似文献

Aims: The presence of Brettanomyces bruxellensis is an important issue during winemaking because of its volatile phenols production capacities. The aim of this study is to provide information on the ability of residual B. bruxellensis populations to multiply and spoil finished wines during storage in bottles. Methods and Results: Several finished wines were studied. Brettanomyces bruxellensis populations were monitored during two and a half months, and volatile phenols as well as chemical parameters regularly determined. Variable growth and volatile phenols synthesis capacities were evidenced, in particularly when cells are in a noncultivable state. In addition, the volatile phenol production was clearly shown to be a two‐step procedure that could strongly be correlated to the physiological state of the yeast population. Conclusions: This study underlines the importance of minimizing B. bruxellensis populations at the end of wine ageing to reduce volatile phenols production risk once the wine in bottle. Moreover, the physiological state of the yeast seems to have an important impact on ethyl‐phenols production, hence demonstrating the importance of taking into account this parameter when analysing wine spoilage risks. Significance and Impact of the Study: Little data exist about the survival of B. bruxellensis once the wine in bottle. This study provides information on the alteration risks encountered during wine storage in bottle and reveals the importance of carrying on further studies to increase the knowledge on B. bruxellensis physiology.  相似文献

Yeast belonging to the genera Brettanomyces and Dekkera are noted for spoiling cellar and bottled wine through the production of haze, turbidity and acetic acid. However, I was unable to find information on the use of these yeasts for the expressed purpose of acetic acid production. Sixty yeast strains belonging to these, and several other genera, from the ARS Culture Collection, Peoria, IL, were screened for their ability to produce both ethanol and/or acetic acid. For ethanol production, the strains were grown anaerobically at 24 and 30 °C in batch culture using glucose (100 g/l) as the carbon/energy source. For acetic acid production, the strains were grown aerobically in batch culture using either glucose (100 g/l) or ethanol (35 g/l) as the carbon/energy source. In the initial ethanol production screen, 19 strains produced at least 45 g ethanol/l. In the initial acetic acid screen, 28 of the yeast strains produced at least 5 g acetic acid/l from 100 g glucose/l, while 23 strains produced at least 5 g acetic acid/l from 35 g ethanol/l.  相似文献

Whole corn mash fermentations infected with industrially-isolated Brettanomyces yeasts were not affected even when viable Brettanomyces yeasts out-numbered Saccharomyces yeasts tenfold at the onset of fermentation. Therefore, aeration, a parameter that is pivotal to the physiology of Dekkera/Brettanomyces yeasts, was investigated in mixed culture fermentations. Results suggest that aeration strategy plays a significant role in Dekkera/Brettanomyces-mediated inhibition of fuel alcohol fermentations. Although growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was not impeded, mixed culture fermentations aerated at rates of ≥20 ml air l−1 mash min−1 showed decreased ethanol yields and an accumulation of acetic acid. The importance of aeration was examined further in combination with organic acid(s). Growth of Saccharomyces occurred more rapidly than growth of Brettanomyces yeasts in all conditions. The combination of 0.075% (w/v) acetic acid and contamination with Brettanomyces TK 1404W did not negatively impact the final ethanol yield under fermentative conditions. Aeration, however, did prove to be detrimental to final ethanol yields. With the inclusion of aeration in the control condition (no organic acid stress) and in each fermentation containing organic acid(s), the final ethanol yields were decreased. It was therefore concluded that aeration strategy is the key parameter in regards to the negative effects observed in fuel alcohol fermentations infected with Dekkera/Brettanomyces yeasts.  相似文献

Yeast strains and acetic acid bacteria were isolated from spoiled soft drinks with characteristic flocs as a visual defect. Polymerase chain reaction and amplification of a partial region of the LSU rRNA gene identified the bacteria as Asaia spp. Sequence analysis of the D1/D2 region of the 26S rDNA in turn identified the yeast isolates as Wickerhamomyces anomalus, Dekkera bruxellensis and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. The hydrophobicity and adhesion properties of the yeasts were evaluated in various culture media, taking into account the availability of nutrients and the carbon sources. The highest hydrophobicity and best adhesion properties were exhibited by the R. mucilaginosa cells. Our results suggest that Asaia spp. bacterial cells were responsible for the formation of flocs, while the presence of yeast cells may help to strengthen the structure of co-aggregates.  相似文献
