Abstract
Wine quality is determined by the particular yeast strains prevailing at various stages of fermentation. Therefore, the ability to make an easy, fast, and unambiguous discrimination of yeasts at the strain level is of great importance. Here, the tandem repeat-tRNA (TRtRNA) method with the 5GAC or ISSR-MB primer sets and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis with (GTG)3, R5, and RF2 oligonucleotides were tested on various non-Saccharomyces wine yeast species. The TRtRNA-PCR employing ISSR-MB showed the highest capacity in discriminating Lachancea thermotolerans and Metschnikowia pulcherrima isolates. RAPD with RF2 was the most efficient method in resolving Starmerella bacillaris isolates, although it produced few polymorphic bands. RAPD with R5 showed the highest capacity to discriminate among the Issatchenkia orientalis, Hanseniaspora guilliermondii, and Pichia anomala isolates. RAPD with either R5 or RF2 exhibited the highest ability to discriminate among the Torulaspora delbrueckii isolates. RAPD with (GTG)3 was the most discriminating method for the H. uvarum isolates. Here we concluded that both TRtRNA-PCR and RAPD-PCR offer rapid means for typing non-Saccharomyces species. However, each method performs better for a given species when paired with a particular primer set. The present results can be useful in wine research for the fast fingerprinting of non-Saccharomyces yeasts.

Abstract
Human-associated microorganisms are ideal models to study the impact of environmental changes on species evolution and adaptation because of their small genome, short generation time, and their colonization of contrasting and ever-changing ecological niches. The yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a good example of organism facing anthropogenic-driven selective pressures. It is associated with fermentation processes in which it can be considered either as a spoiler (e.g. winemaking, bioethanol production) or as a beneficial microorganism (e.g. production of specific beers, kombucha). Besides its industrial interests, noteworthy parallels and dichotomies with Saccharomyces cerevisiae propelled B. bruxellensis as a valuable complementary yeast model. In this review, we emphasize that the broad genetic and phenotypic diversity of this species is only beginning to be uncovered. Population genomic studies have revealed the co-existence of auto- and allotriploidization events with different evolutionary outcomes. The different diploid, autotriploid and allotriploid subpopulations are associated with specific fermented processes, suggesting independent adaptation events to anthropized environments. Phenotypically, B. bruxellensis is renowned for its ability to metabolize a wide variety of carbon and nitrogen sources, which may explain its ability to colonize already fermented environments showing low-nutrient contents. Several traits of interest could be related to adaptation to human activities (e.g. nitrate metabolization in bioethanol production, resistance to sulphite treatments in winemaking). However, phenotypic traits are insufficiently studied in view of the great genomic diversity of the species. Future work will have to take into account strains of varied substrates, geographical origins as well as displaying different ploidy levels to improve our understanding of an anthropized yeast's phenotypic landscape.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is described as a wine spoilage yeast with many mainly strain-dependent genetic characteristics, bestowing tolerance against environmental stresses and persistence during the winemaking process. Thus, it is essential to discriminate B. bruxellensis isolates at the strain level in order to predict their stress resistance capacities. Few predictive tools are available to reveal intraspecific diversity within B. bruxellensis species; also, they require expertise and can be expensive. In this study, a Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) adapted PCR method was used with three different primers to discriminate 74 different B. bruxellensis isolates. High correlation between the results of this method using the primer OPA-09 and those of a previous microsatellite analysis was obtained, allowing us to cluster the isolates among four genetic groups more quickly and cheaply than microsatellite analysis. To make analysis even faster, we further investigated the correlation suggested in a previous study between genetic groups and cell polymorphism using the analysis of optical microscopy images via deep learning. A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was trained to predict the genetic group of B. bruxellensis isolates with 96.6% accuracy. These methods make intraspecific discrimination among B. bruxellensis species faster, simpler and less costly. These results open up very promising new perspectives in oenology for the study of microbial ecosystems.

Abstract
Genome-wide characterization of genetic variants of a large population of individuals within the same species is essential to have a deeper insight into its evolutionary history as well as the genotype–phenotype relationship. Population genomic surveys have been performed in multiple yeast species, including the two model organisms, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. In this context, we sought to characterize at the population level the Brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast species, which is a major cause of wine spoilage and can contribute to the specific flavor profile of some Belgium beers. We have completely sequenced the genome of 53 B. bruxellensis strains isolated worldwide. The annotation of the reference genome allowed us to define the gene content of this species. As previously suggested, our genomic data clearly highlighted that genetic diversity variation is related to ploidy level, which is variable in the B. bruxellensis species. Genomes are punctuated by multiple loss-of-heterozygosity regions, whereas aneuploidies as well as segmental duplications are uncommon. Interestingly, triploid genomes are more prone to gene copy number variation than diploids. Finally, the pangenome of the species was reconstructed and was found to be small with few accessory genes compared with S. cerevisiae. The pangenome is composed of 5,409 ORFs (open reading frames) among which 5,106 core ORFs and 303 ORFs that are variable within the population. All these results highlight the different trajectories of species evolution and consequently the interest of establishing population genomic surveys in more populations.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a wine spoilage yeast known to colonize and persist in production cellars. However, knowledge on the biofilm formation capacity of B. bruxellensis remains limited. The present study investigated the biofilm formation of 11 B. bruxellensis strains on stainless steel coupons after 3 h of incubation in an aqueous solution. FTIR analysis was performed for both planktonic and attached cells, while comparison of the obtained spectra revealed chemical groups implicated in the biofilm formation process. The increased region corresponding to polysaccharides and lipids clearly discriminated the obtained spectra, while the absorption peaks at the specific wavenumbers possibly reveal the presence of β-glucans, mannas and ergosterol. Unsupervised clustering and supervised classification were employed to identify the important wavenumbers of the whole spectra. The fact that all the metabolic fingerprints of the attached versus the planktonic cells were similar within the same cell phenotype class and different between the two phenotypes, implies a clear separation of the cell phenotype; supported by the results of the developed classification model. This study represents the first to succeed at applying a non-invasive technique to reveal the metabolic fingerprint implicated in the biofilm formation capacity of B. bruxellensis, underlying the homogenous mechanism within the yeast species.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is regarded as the main spoilage microorganism in the wine industry, owing to its production of off-flavours. It is difficult to eradicate owing to its high tolerance of adverse environmental conditions, such as low nutrient availability, low pH, and high levels of ethanol and SO2. In this study, the production of volatile phenols and the growth kinetics of isolates from various regions of Chile were evaluated under stressful conditions. Through randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis, 15 strains were identified. These were grown in the presence of p-coumaric acid, a natural antimicrobial and the main precursor of off-flavours, and molecular sulfur dioxide (mSO2), an antimicrobial synthetic used in the wine industry. When both compounds were used simultaneously, there were clear signs of an improvement in the fitness of most of the isolates, which showed an antagonistic interaction in which p-coumaric acid mitigates the effects of SO2. Fourteen strains were able to produce 4-vinylphenol, which showed signs of phenylacrylic acid decarboxylase activity, and most of them produced 4-ethylphenol as a result of active vinylphenol reductase. These results demonstrate for the first time the serious implications of using p-coumaric acid, not only for the production of off-flavours, but also for its protective action against the toxic effects of SO2.

Abstract
The diverse metabolites, positively affecting the nutritional, organoleptic and technological traits of leavened baked goods, are produced by different sourdough lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast strains, as the result of their genetic intraspecific diversity. Therefore, the molecular and functional strain-level characterization of sourdough microbiota is crucial to valorize traditional or origin protected baked end-products, develop innovative starter cultures and design functional cereal-based foods. To this aim, the genetic intraspecific diversity of 96 Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis, 65 Kazachstania humilis and three Saccharomyces cerevisiae characterizing Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) Tuscan bread sourdough, was investigated, using P4, P7 and M13 random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR), (GTG)5 repetitive element sequence-based (rep)-PCR and inter-delta region analyses, respectively. Regarding LAB, the combination of P4, P7 and M13 RAPD-PCR analyses revealed a huge degree of intraspecific variability, discriminating 43 biotypes out of 96 isolates of L. sanfranciscensis. (GTG)5 rep-PCR showed a discriminatory index of 0.95, grouping the 65 K. humilis isolated from PDO Tuscan bread sourdough in 9 biotypes. The high polymorphism among both LAB and yeast isolates of PDO Tuscan bread sourdough outlines a highly complex microbial community structure, whose relative composition and specific physiological characteristics could be responsible for the peculiar organoleptic, rheological, nutritional and potentially nutraceutical features of PDO Tuscan bread.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is the main wine spoiler yeast all over the world, yet the structure of the populations associated with winemaking remains elusive. In this work, we considered 1411 wine isolates from 21 countries that were genotyped using twelve microsatellite markers. We confirmed that B. bruxellensis isolates from wine environments show high genetic diversity, with 58 and 42% of putative triploid and diploid individuals respectively distributed in 5 main genetic groups. The distribution in the genetic groups varied greatly depending on the country and/or the wine-producing region. However, the two possible triploid wine groups showing sulfite resistance/tolerance were identified in almost all regions/countries. Genetically identical isolates were also identified. The analysis of these clone groups revealed that a given genotype could be isolated repeatedly in the same winery over decades, demonstrating unsuspected persistence ability. Besides cellar residency, a great geographic dispersal was also evidenced, with some genotypes isolated in wines from different continents. Finally, the study of old isolates and/or isolates from old vintages revealed that only the diploid groups were identified prior 1990 vintages. The putative triploid groups were identified in subsequent vintages, and their proportion has increased steadily these last decades, suggesting adaptation to winemaking practices such as sulfite use. A possible evolutionary scenario explaining these results is discussed.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a yeast species found in many fermented matrices. A high level of genetic diversity prevails in this species and was recently connected with tolerance to sulfur dioxide, the main preservative used in wine. We therefore examine other phenotypes that may modulate the ability of the species to spoil wine, in a selection of representative strains. The species shows a fairly high homogeneity with respect to the carbohydrates that can support growth, but more diverse behaviors regarding tolerance to low pH or ethanol. Thought no clear link can be drawn with genotype, some strains appear more tolerant than the others, mainly in the AWRI1499 like genetic group. Volatile phenol production is ubiquitous within the species, independent from yeast growth profile and not affected by the nature of the growth substrate. The specific production. n rate of volatile phenol production raises in case of increased aeration. It is little affected by pH decrease until 3.0 or by ethanol concentration increase up to 12% vol, but it decreased in case of increased constraint (pH < 3.0, Ethanol ≥14% vol) or combination of constraints. All the strain studied have thus the ability to spoil wine but some outstanding dangerous strains can even spoil the wine with high level of constrainst.

Abstract
The spoilage yeasts belonging to the genus Dekkera (anamorph Brettanomyces) are associated with the fermentation process and can be responsible for off-flavors in wine. Brettanomyces bruxellensis is difficult to isolate from natural environments because of its low diffusion, low presence on the grape surface and low competition capacity, slow growth, and VBNC (viable but not culturable) state, even when selective media are used. In this study, to investigate the origins and occurrence of B. bruxellensis in winemaking, a total of 62 samples from grapes, winery environment, and fermenting musts were taken through direct isolation with a selective medium. B. bruxellensis was not directly detected in the grape samples but was instead widely isolated from the winery environment samples. However, using a combination of enrichment and selective media, eight of fifteen grape samples were positive for B. bruxellensis. Analysis of the genetic traits of the isolates indicated a strict relationship among the strains from the vineyard and the winery. Isolates from the vineyard and the winery were both part of the more common and dominant biotypes suggesting that the vineyard may be the contamination source of B. bruxellensis in the winery environment. For this, grapes may represent the possible primary origin source from which a flow toward the winery environment originates. On the other hand, the wide occurrence of B. bruxellensis in winery indicates that this environment can be considered as the favorable ecological niche for colonization and diffusion of these yeast.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Recent studies have suggested a strong niche adaptation for Brettanomyces bruxellensis strains according to human-related fermentation environments, including beer, wine and bioethanol. This is further supported by a correlation between B. bruxellensis genetic grouping and tolerance to SO2, the main antimicrobial used in wine. The allotriploid AWRI1499-like cluster, in particular, shows high SO2 tolerance suggesting that the genetic configuration observed for these strains may confer a selective advantage in winemaking conditions. To test this hypothesis, we evaluated the relative selective advantage of representatives of the three main B. bruxellensis genetic groups in presence of SO2. As a proof-of-concept and using recently developed transformation cassettes, we compared strains under different SO2 concentrations using pairwise competitive fitness experiments. Our results showed that AWRI1499 is specifically adapted to environments with high SO2 concentrations compared to other B. bruxellensis wine strains, indicating a potential correlation between allotriploidisation origin and environmental adaptation in this species. Additionally, our findings suggest different types of competition between strains, such as coexistence and exclusion, revealing new insights on B. bruxellensis interactions at intraspecies level.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is the most common spoilage wine yeast which can provoke great economic damage to the wine industry due to the production of undesirable odors. The capacity of the species to adapt in various environmental conditions offers a selective advantage that is reflected by intraspecific variability at genotypic and phenotypic level. In this study, microsatellite analysis of 22 strains isolated from Greek wine revealed the existence of distinct genetic subgroups that are correlated with their geographical origin. The response of these strains to increasing levels of sulfur dioxide confirmed the presence of both sensitive and tolerant strains, which belong to distinguished genetic clusters. The genetic categorization of B. bruxellensis strains could be used by the winemakers as a diagnostic tool regarding sulfur dioxide sensitivity.

Abstract
The increasing demand for healthy baked goods boosted studies on sourdough microbiota with beneficial metabolic traits, to be used as potential functional starters. Here, yeast populations of traditional sourdoughs collected from four Tuscan bakeries were investigated. Among 200 isolated strains, 78 were randomly selected and molecularly characterized. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was dominant, representing the only species detected in three out of the four sourdoughs. The fourth one harbored also Kazachstania humilis. Inter-delta regions analysis revealed a high intraspecific polymorphism discriminating 16 biotypes of S. cerevisiae isolates, which clustered based on their origin. Representative isolates from each biotype group were individually used to ferment soft and durum wheat flour, aiming at evaluating their pro-technological, nutritional and functional features. During fermentation under standardized conditions, all strains were able to grow of ca. 2 log cycles, but only S. cerevisiae L10Y, D18Y and D20Y had a significantly shorter latency phase in both flours. Overall, the highest volumes were reached after 16 h of fermentation in both soft and durum fermented dough. S. cerevisiae D2Y produced the highest dough volume increase. K. humilis G23Y was the only strain able to increase the total free amino acids concentration of the doughs. Overall, values of phytase activity were significantly higher in durum compared to the corresponding soft fermented dough. K. humilis G23Y and S. cerevisiae D20Y, D24Y showed a threefold higher phytase activity than spontaneously fermented control, and the highest concentration of total phenols. Almost all the strains led to increases of antioxidant activity, without significant differences among them. Investigations on the resistance of the strains to simulated gastric and intestinal conditions, that is considered a pre-requisite for the selection of probiotics, revealed the ability to survive in vitro by many of the strains considered. This study proposed the best performing yeast strains selected among autochthonous sourdough yeasts based on their pro-technological, nutritional and functional traits to be used as starters for making sourdough baked goods or functional cereal-based beverages. Although some yeast strains combined several technological and nutritional traits, the association of more selected strains seemed to be a requisite to get optimal sourdough characteristics.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a unicellular fungus of increasing industrial and scientific interest over the past 15 years. Previous studies revealed high genotypic diversity amongst B. bruxellensis strains as well as strain-dependent phenotypic characteristics. Genomic assemblies revealed that some strains harbour triploid genomes and based upon prior genotyping it was inferred that a triploid population was widely dispersed across Australian wine regions. We performed an intraspecific diversity genotypic survey of 1488 B. bruxellensis isolates from 29 countries, 5 continents and 9 different fermentation niches. Using microsatellite analysis in combination with different statistical approaches, we demonstrate that the studied population is structured according to ploidy level, substrate of isolation and geographical origin of the strains, underlying the relative importance of each factor. We found that geographical origin has a different contribution to the population structure according to the substrate of origin, suggesting an anthropic influence on the spatial biodiversity of this microorganism of industrial interest. The observed clustering was correlated to variable stress response, as strains from different groups displayed variation in tolerance to the wine preservative sulfur dioxide (SO2). The potential contribution of the triploid state for adaptation to industrial fermentations and dissemination of the species B. bruxellensis is discussed.

Abstract
Wine production is an important commercial issue for the liquor industry. The global production was estimated at 275.7 million hectoliters in 2015. The loss of wine production due to Brettanomyces bruxellensis contamination is currently a problem. This yeast causes a "horse sweat" flavor in wine, which is an undesired organoleptic attribute. To date, 6 B. bruxellensis annotated genome sequences are available (LAMAP2480, AWRI1499, AWRI1608, AWRI1613, ST05.12/22, and CBS2499), and whole genome comparisons between strains are limited. In this article, we reassembled and reannotated the genome of B. bruxellensis LAMAP2480, obtaining a 27-Mb assembly with 5.5 kb of N50. In addition, the genome of B. bruxellensis LAMAP2480 was analyzed in the context of spoilage yeast and potential as a biotechnological tool. In addition, we carried out an exploratory transcriptomic analysis of this strain grown in synthetic wine. Several genes related to stress tolerance, micronutrient acquisition, ethanol production, and lignocellulose assimilation were found. In conclusion, the analysis of the genome of B. bruxellensis LAMAP2480 reaffirms the biotechnological potential of this strain. This research represents an interesting platform for the study of the spoilage yeast B. bruxellensis.

Abstract
Vinylphenol reductase of Dekkera bruxellensis, the characteristic enzyme liable for "Brett" sensory modification of wine, has been recently recognized to belong to the short chain dehydrogenases/reductases family. Indeed, a preliminary biochemical characterisation has conferred to the purified protein a dual significance acting as superoxide dismutase and as a NADH-dependent reductase. The present study aimed for providing a certain identification of the enzyme by cloning the VPR gene in S. cerevisiae, a species not producing ethyl phenols. Transformed clones of S. cerevisiae resulted capable of expressing a biologically active form of the heterologous protein, proving its role in the conversion of 4-vinyl guaiacol to 4-ethyl guaiacol. A VPR specific protein activity of 9 ± 0.6 mU/mg was found in crude extracts of S. cerevisiae recombinant strain. This result was confirmed in activity trials carried out with the protein purified from transformant cells of S. cerevisiae by a his-tag purification approach; in particular, VPR-enriched fractions showed a specific activity of 1.83 ± 0.03 U/mg at pH 6.0. Furthermore, in agreement with literature, the purified protein behaves like a SOD, with a calculated specific activity of approximatively 3.41 U/mg. The comparative genetic analysis of the partial VPR gene sequences from 17 different D. bruxellesis strains suggested that the observed polymorphism (2.3%) and the allelic heterozygosity state of the gene do not justify the well described strain-dependent character in producing volatile phenols of this species. Actually, no correlation exists between genotype membership of the analysed strains and their capability to release off-flavours. This work adds valuable knowledge to the study of D. bruxellensis wine spoilage and prepare the ground for interesting future industrial applications.

Abstract
Terroir concept includes specific soil, topography, climate, landscape characteristics and biodiversity features. In reference to the last aspect, recent studies investigating the microbial biogeography (lately called 'microbial terroir') have revealed that different wine-growing regions maintain different microbial communities. The aim of the present work was to identify potential autochthonous fermentative yeasts isolated from native plants in North Patagonia, Schinus johnstonii, Ephedra ochreata and Lycium chilense, that could be associated to the specific vitivinicultural terroir of this region. Different Pichia kudriavzevii isolates were recovered from these plants and physiologically and genetically compared to regional wine isolates and foreign reference strains of the same species. All isolates were subjected to molecular characterization including mtDNA-RFLP, RAPD-PCR and sequence analysis. Both wine and native P. kudriavzevii isolates from Patagonia showed similar features, different from those showed by foreign strains, suggesting that this species could be part of a specific regional terroir from North Patagonia.

UNLABELLED Cell suspensions of four Dekkera bruxellensis strains (CBS 2499, CBS 2797, CBS 4459 and CBS 4601) were subjected to heat treatment in deionized water at four different temperatures (55·0, 57·5, 60·0 and 62·5°C) to investigate their thermal resistance. The decimal reduction times at a specific temperature were calculated from the resulting inactivation curves: the D-values at 55·0°C ranged from 63 to 79·4 s, at 57·5°C from 39·6 to 46·1 s, at 60·0°C from 19·5 to 20·7 s, at 62·5°C from 10·2 to 13·7 s. The z-values were between 9·2 and 10·2°C, confirming that heat resistance is a strain-dependent character. A protocol for the sanitization of 225 l casks by immersion in hot water was set up and applied to contaminated 3-year-old barrels. The heat penetration through the staves was evaluated for each investigated temperature by positioning a thermal probe at 8 mm deep. A treatment at 60°C for an exposure time of 19 min allowed to eliminate the yeast populations up to a log count reduction of 8. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Brettanomyces/Dekkera bruxellensis is the main yeast involved in red wine spoilage that occurs during ageing in barrel, generating considerable economic losses. Current sanitization protocols, performed using different chemicals, are ineffective due to the porous nature of the wood. The thermal inactivation of D. bruxellensis cells by hot water treatment proves to be efficacious and easy to perform, provided that the holding time at the killing temperature takes into account the filling time of the vessel and the time for the heat penetration into the wood structure.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a current problem in winemaking all over the world, and the question if B. bruxellensis has a positive or negative impact on wine is one of the most controversial discussions in the world. The presence of live B. bruxellensis cells represents the risk of growth and an increase in cell numbers, which is related to the potential production of volatile phenols. In this work, the optimisation of a PMA-quantitative PCR (qPCR) method to enumerate only viable cells was carried out using the standard strain B. bruxellensis DSMZ 70726. The obtained detection limits were 0.83 log CFU/mL in red wine, 0.63 log CFU/mL in white wine and 0.23 log CFU/mL in beer. Moreover, the quantification was also performed by Reverse Transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and the results showed a higher detection limit for all of the trials.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis displays a high degree of genotypic and phenotypic polymorphism and is the main yeast species involved in wine spoilage. The innate resistance of 108 B. bruxellensis strains to the antimicrobial agent SO2 used in winemaking was investigated. Nineteen strains (17.6%) were sensitive to SO2 , failing to grow at the lowest concentration tested (0.1 mg L(-1) molecular SO2). Twenty-nine strains (26.8%) grew at 0.1 mg L(-1), 42 strains (38.9%) grew at 0.2 mg L(-1) , and 16 strains (14.8%) were able to grow as high as 0.4 mg L(-1) mol. SO2. Two strains able to grow in the presence of 0.6 mg L(-1) mol. SO2 were further studied by GCMS-TOF analysis to define the metabolic response to SO2 treatment. Two hundred and fifty-three intracellular metabolites were detected. The main effect observed was a decrease in cytoplasmic levels of polyols and an increase in levels of some amino acids, alanine, glutamic acid, glycine, proline, 5-oxoproline, serine and valine, which were significantly accumulated in the presence of SO2. No alteration in the pentose phosphate pathway was observed, suggesting NADPH usage could be diverted to other pathways. Finally, a change in metabolites involved in the glycerophospholipid pathway (glycerol-3-phosphate and myo-inositol) was also found.

Abstract
AIMS Dekkera bruxellensis and Pichia guilliermondii are contaminating yeasts in wine due to the production of phenolic aromas. Although the degradation pathway of cinnamic acids, precursors of these phenolic compounds has been described in D. bruxellensis, no such pathway has been described in P. guilliermondii. METHODS AND RESULTS A molecular and physiological characterization of 14 D. bruxellensis and 15 P. guilliermondii phenol-producing strains was carried out. Both p-coumarate decarboxylase (CD) and vinyl reductase (VR) activities, responsible for the production of volatile phenols, were quantified and the production of 4-vinylphenol and 4-ethylphenol were measured. All D. bruxellensis and some P. guilliermondii strains showed the two enzymatic activities, whilst 11 of the 15 strains of this latter species showed only CD activity and did not produce 4-EP in the assay conditions. Furthermore, PCR products obtained with degenerated primers showed a low homology with the sequence of the gene for a phenyl acrylic acid decarboxylase activity described in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. CONCLUSIONS D. bruxellensis and P. guilliermondii may share a similar metabolic pathway for the degradation of cinnamic acids. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This is the first work that analyses the CD and VR activities in P. guilliermondii, and the results suggest that within this species, there are differences in the metabolization of cinnamic acids.

Abstract
Quantitative PCR as a tool has been used to detect Brettanomyces bruxellensis directly from wine samples. Accurate and timely detection of this yeast is important to prevent unwanted spoilage of wines and beverages. The aim of this study was to distinguish differences between DNA and mRNA as template for the detection of this yeast. The study was also used to determine if it is possible to accurately detect cells in the viable but not culturable (VBNC) state of B. bruxellensis by qPCR. Several methods including traditional plating, epifluorescence counts and qPCR were used to amplify DNA and mRNA. It was observed that mRNA was a better template for the detection in terms of standard curve analysis and qPCR efficiencies. Various primers previously published were tested for their specificity, qPCR efficiency and accuracy of enumeration. A single primer set was selected which amplified a region of the actin-encoding gene. The detection limit for this assay was 10cellsmL(-1). B. bruxellensis could also be quantified in naturally contaminated wines with this assay. The mRNA gave a better indication of the viability of the cells which compared favourably to fluorescent microscopy and traditional cell counts. The ability of the assay to accurately estimate the number of cells in the VBNC state was also demonstrated.

Abstract
In enology, "Brett" character refers to the wine spoilage caused by the yeast Dekkera/Brettanomyces bruxellensis and its production of volatile phenolic off-flavours. However, the spoilage potential of this yeast is strain-dependent. Therefore, a rapid and reliable recognition at the strain level is a key point to avoid serious economic losses. The present work provides an operative tool to assess the genetic intraspecific variation in this species through the use of introns as molecular targets. Firstly, the available partial D./B. bruxellensis genome sequence was investigated in order to build primers annealing to introns 5' splice site sequence (ISS). This analysis allowed the detection of a non-random vocabulary flanking the site and, exploiting this feature, the creation of specific probes for strain discrimination. Secondly, the separation of the intron splice site PCR fragments was obtained throughout the set up of a capillary electrophoresis protocol, giving a 94% repeatability threshold in our experimental conditions. The comparison of results obtained with ISS-PCR/CE versus the ones performed by mtDNA RFLP revealed that the former protocol is more discriminating and allowed a reliable identification at strain level. Actually sixty D./B. bruxellensis isolates were recognised as unique strains, showing a level of similarity below 79% and confirming the high genetic polymorphism existing within the species. Two main clusters were grouped at similarity levels of about 46% and 47%, respectively, showing a poor correlation with the geographic area of isolation. Moreover, from the evolutionary point of view, the proposed technique could determine the frequency of the genome rearrangements that can occur in D./B. bruxellesis populations.
