| Sumario: | Abstract Shanxi aged vinegar (SAV) is a well-known vinegar produced by traditional solid-state fermentation and has been used in China for thousands of years. However, how microorganisms and their metabolites change along with fermentation is unclear. Here, 454 high-throughput sequencing and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis were used to investigate the composition of microbial community. Metabolites were further analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and high–performance liquid chromatography. Results showed that the composition of bacterial community changed dramatically at different stages of fermentation. The bacterial genera (relative abundance > 0.1%) decreased from 17 in daqu (starter used in starch saccharification) to 2 at the 12th day of alcohol fernemtation (AF). 15 bacterial genera at the 1st day of acetic acid fermentation (AAF) decreased to 4 genera, involving Acetobacter (50.9%), Lactobacillus (47.9%), Komagataeibacter (formerly Gluconacetobacter, 0.7%) and Propionibacterium (0.1%) at the 7th day of AAF. The structure of fungal community was more homogeneous. Saccharomyces and Saccharomycopsis were predominant in AF and AAF. A total of 87 kinds of nonvolatile metabolites were detected. Canonical correspondence analysis showed a significant correlation between the microbiota succession and the formation of metabolites during the fermentation of SAV. This study provides detailed information for the fermentation mechanism of traditional SAV. |
