Abstract
Biofilms are central to microbial life because of the advantage that this mode of life provides, whereas the planktonic form is considered to be transient in the environment. During the winemaking process, grape must and wines host a wide diversity of microorganisms able to grow in biofilm. This is the case of Brettanomyces bruxellensis considered the most harmful spoilage yeast, due to its negative sensory effect on wine and its ability to colonise stressful environments. In this study, the effect of different biotic and abiotic factors on the bioadhesion and biofilm formation capacities of B. bruxellensis was analyzed. Ethanol concentration and pH had negligible effect on yeast surface properties, pseudohyphal cell formation or bioadhesion, while the strain and genetic group factors strongly modulated the phenotypes studied. From a biotic point of view, the presence of two different strains of B. bruxellensis did not lead to a synergistic effect. A competition between the strains was rather observed during biofilm formation which seemed to be driven by the strain with the highest bioadhesion capacity. Finally, the presence of wine bacteria reduced the bioadhesion of B. bruxellensis. Due to biofilm formation, O. oeni cells were observed attached to B. bruxellensis as well as extracellular matrix on the surface of the cells.

Abstract
Mousy off-flavor describes N-heterocycles compounds related to spoilage in the brewing industry. It has also been identified in sour beers through sensory analysis. Therefore, preventing spoilage N-heterocycles development is essential to preserve end-products and obviate economic losses. To this day, no methods or protocols have been reported to identifying mousy off-flavor compounds in a beer matrix. The main objective of this work was to develop a standardized quantification method for 2-acetyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine (ATHP) in beer matrix, by Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry with Electrospray Ionization (LC-MS-ESI). Extraction of ATHP in the samples was performed using QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) technique. Over a dozen different potentially mousy cask-aged sour beers including other spontaneously fermented beverages were provided, based on sensory analysis, to determine the variation in ATHP levels. Results indicated ATHP was found in all the samples, ranging from 1.64 ± 0.06 to 57.96 ± 2.15 µg L-1. Herein, we described our detection method of mousy-off flavor compounds which enables future research to mitigate the occurrence of such defects in fermented beverages matrix.•ATHP content in samples varied from 1.64 ± 0.06 to 57.96 ± 2.15 µg L-1.•The recovery range of ATHP using LC-MS-ESI varied from 71% to 97%.•Basified QuEChERS salting-out procedure is applicable for ATHP extraction from beer and other fermented beverages matrices.

Abstract
Beer has over 600 flavor compounds and creates a positive tasting experience with acceptable sensory properties, which are essential for the best consumer experience. Spontaneous and mixed-culture fermentation beers, generally classified as sour beers, are gaining popularity compared to typical lager or ale styles, which have dominated in the USA for the last few decades. Unique and acceptable flavor compounds characterize sour beers, but some unfavorable aspects appear in conjunction. One such unfavorable flavor is called "mousy". This description is usually labeled as an unpleasant odor, identifying spoilage of fermented food and beverages. It is related as having the odor of mouse urine, cereal, corn tortilla chips, or freshly baked sour bread. The main compounds responsible for it are N-heterocyclic compounds: 2-acetyltetrahydropyridine, 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline, and 2-ethyltetrahydropyridine. The most common beverages associated with mousy off-flavor are identified in wines, sour beers, other grain-based beverages, and kombucha, which may contain heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria, acetic acid bacteria, and/or yeast/fungus cultures. In particular, the fungal species Brettanomyces bruxellensis are associated with mousy-off flavor occurrence in fermented beverages matrices. However, many factors for N-heterocycle formation are not well-understood. Currently, the research and development of mixed-cultured beer and non/low alcohol beverages (NABLAB) has increased to obtain the highest quality, sensory, functionality, and most notably safety standards, and also to meet consumers' demand for a balanced sourness in these beverages. This paper introduces mousy off-flavor expression in beers and beverages, which occurs in spontaneous or mixed-culture fermentations, with a focus on sour beers due to common inconsistency aspects in fermentation. We discuss and suggest possible pathways of mousy off-flavor development in the beer matrix, which also apply to other fermented beverages, including non/low alcohol drinks, e.g., kombucha and low/nonalcohol beers. Some precautions and modifications may prevent the occurrence of these off-flavor compounds in the beverage matrix: improving raw material quality, adjusting brewing processes, and using specific strains of yeast and bacteria that are less likely to produce the off-flavor. Conceivably, it is clear that spontaneous and mixed culture fermentation is gaining popularity in industrial, craft, and home brewing. The review discusses important elements to identify and understand metabolic pathways, following the prevention of spoilage targeted to off-flavor compounds development in beers and NABLABs.

Abstract
The selection of native yeast for alcoholic fermentation in wine focuses on ensuring the success of the process and promoting the quality of the final product. The purpose of this study was firstly to create a large collection of new yeast isolates and categorize them based on their oenological potential. Additionally, the geographical distribution of the most dominant species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was further explored. Towards this direction, fourteen spontaneously fermented wines from different regions of Greece were collected for yeast typing. The yeast isolates were subjected in molecular analyses and identification at species level. RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) genomic fingerprinting with the oligo-nucleotide primer M13 was used, combined with Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) technique. All yeast isolates were scrutinized for their sensitivity to killer toxin, production of non-desirable metabolites such as acetic acid and H2S, β-glucosidase production and resistance to the antimicrobial agent; SO2. In parallel, S. cerevisiae isolates were typed at strain level by interdelta - PCR genomic fingerprinting. S. cerevisiae strains were examined for their fermentative capacity in laboratory scale fermentation on pasteurized grape must. Glucose and fructose consumption was monitored daily and at the final point a free sorting task was conducted to categorize the samples according to their organoleptic profile. According to our results, among the 190 isolates, S. cerevisiae was the most dominant species while some less common non-Saccharomyces species such as Trigonopsis californica, Priceomyces carsonii, Zygosaccharomyces bailii, Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Pichia manshurica were identified in minor abundancies. According to phenotypic typing, most isolates were neutral to killer toxin test and exhibited low acetic acid production. Hierarchical Cluster Analysis revealed the presence of four yeast groups based on phenotypic fingerprinting. Strain level typing reported 20 different S. cerevisiae strains from which 65% indicated fermentative capacity and led to dry wines. Sensory evaluation results clearly discriminated the produced wines and consequently, the proposed yeast categorization was confirmed. A novel approach that employs biostatistical tools for a rapid screening and classification of indigenous wine yeasts with oenological potential, allowing a more efficient preliminary selection or rejection of isolates is proposed.

Abstract
Domestication is an excellent case study for understanding adaptation and multiple fungal lineages have been domesticated for fermenting food products. Studying domestication in fungi has thus both fundamental and applied interest. Genomic studies have revealed the existence of four populations within the blue-cheese-making fungus Penicillium roqueforti. The two cheese populations show footprints of domestication, but the adaptation of the two non-cheese populations to their ecological niches (i.e., silage/spoiled food and lumber/spoiled food) has not been investigated yet. Here, we reveal the existence of a new P. roqueforti population, specific to French Termignon cheeses, produced using small-scale traditional practices, with spontaneous blue mould colonisation. This Termignon population is genetically differentiated from the four previously identified populations, providing a novel source of genetic diversity for cheese making. The Termignon population indeed displayed substantial genetic diversity, both mating types, horizontally transferred regions previously detected in the non-Roquefort population, and intermediate phenotypes between cheese and non-cheese populations. Phenotypically, the non-Roquefort cheese population was the most differentiated, with specific traits beneficial for cheese making, in particular higher tolerance to salt, to acidic pH and to lactic acid. Our results support the view that this clonal population, used for many cheese types in multiple countries, is a domesticated lineage on which humans exerted strong selection. The lumber/spoiled food and silage/spoiled food populations were not more tolerant to crop fungicides but showed faster growth in various carbon sources (e.g., dextrose, pectin, sucrose, xylose and/or lactose), which can be beneficial in their ecological niches. Such contrasted phenotypes between P. roqueforti populations, with beneficial traits for cheese-making in the cheese populations and enhanced ability to metabolise sugars in the lumber/spoiled food population, support the inference of domestication in cheese fungi and more generally of adaptation to anthropized environments.

Abstract
Gene expression variation can provide an overview of the changes in regulatory networks that underlie phenotypic diversity. Certain evolutionary trajectories such as polyploidization events can have an impact on the transcriptional landscape. Interestingly, the evolution of the yeast species Brettanomyces bruxellensis has been punctuated by diverse allopolyploidization events leading to the coexistence of a primary diploid genome associated with various haploid acquired genomes. To assess the impact of these events on gene expression, we generated and compared the transcriptomes of a set of 87 B. bruxellensis isolates, selected as being representative of the genomic diversity of this species. Our analysis revealed that acquired subgenomes strongly impact the transcriptional patterns and allow discrimination of allopolyploid populations. In addition, clear transcriptional signatures related to specific populations have been revealed. The transcriptional variations observed are related to some specific biological processes such as transmembrane transport and amino acids metabolism. Moreover, we also found that the acquired subgenome causes the overexpression of some genes involved in the production of flavor-impacting secondary metabolites, especially in isolates of the beer population.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is the most damaging spoilage yeast in the wine industry because of its negative impact on the wine organoleptic qualities. The strain persistence in cellars over several years associated with recurrent wine contamination suggest specific properties to persist and survive in the environment through bioadhesion phenomena. In this work, the physico-chemical surface properties, morphology and ability to adhere to stainless steel were studied both on synthetic medium and on wine. More than 50 strains representative of the genetic diversity of the species were considered. Microscopy techniques made it possible to highlight a high morphological diversity of the cells with the presence of pseudohyphae forms for some genetic groups. Analysis of the physico-chemical properties of the cell surface reveals contrasting behaviors: most of the strains display a negative surface charge and hydrophilic behavior while the Beer 1 genetic group has a hydrophobic behavior. All strains showed bioadhesion abilities on stainless steel after only 3 h with differences in the concentration of bioadhered cells ranging from 2.2 × 102 cell/cm2 to 7.6 × 106 cell/cm2. Finally, our results show high variability of the bioadhesion properties, the first step in the biofilm formation, according to the genetic group with the most marked bioadhesion capacity for the beer group.

Abstract
Spontaneous fermentations that do not rely on backslopping or industrial starter cultures were especially important to the early development of society and are still practiced around the world today. While current literature on spontaneous fermentations is observational and descriptive, it is important to understand the underlying mechanism of microbial community assembly and how this correlates with changes observed in microbial succession, composition, interaction, and metabolite production. Spontaneous food and beverage fermentations are home to autochthonous bacteria and fungi that are naturally inoculated from raw materials, environment, and equipment. This review discusses the factors that play an important role in microbial community assembly, particularly focusing on commonly reported yeasts and bacteria isolated from spontaneously fermenting food and beverages, and how this affects the fermentation dynamics. A wide range of studies have been conducted in spontaneously fermented foods that highlight some of the mechanisms that are involved in microbial interactions, niche adaptation, and lifestyle of these microorganisms. Moreover, we will also highlight how controlled culture experiments provide greater insight into understanding microbial interactions, a modest attempt in decoding the complexity of spontaneous fermentations. Further research using specific in vitro microbial models to understand the role of core microbiota are needed to fill the knowledge gap that currently exists in understanding how the phenotypic and genotypic expression of these microorganisms aid in their successful adaptation and shape fermentation outcomes. Furthermore, there is still a vast opportunity to understand strain level implications on community assembly. Translating these findings will also help in improving other fermentation systems to help gain more control over the fermentation process and maintain consistent and superior product quality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent technological developments have made genome sequencing and assembly highly accessible and widely used. However, the presence in sequenced organisms of certain genomic features such as high heterozygosity, polyploidy, aneuploidy, heterokaryosis, or extreme compositional biases can challenge current standard assembly procedures and result in highly fragmented assemblies. Hence, we hypothesized that genome databases must contain a nonnegligible fraction of low-quality assemblies that result from such type of intrinsic genomic factors. FINDINGS Here we present Karyon, a Python-based toolkit that uses raw sequencing data and de novo genome assembly to assess several parameters and generate informative plots to assist in the identification of nonchanonical genomic traits. Karyon includes automated de novo genome assembly and variant calling pipelines. We tested Karyon by diagnosing 35 highly fragmented publicly available assemblies from 19 different Mucorales (Fungi) species. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that 10 (28.57%) of the assemblies presented signs of unusual genomic configurations, suggesting that these are common, at least for some lineages within the Fungi.

Abstract
Brettanomyces species and particularly B. bruxellensis as the most studied representative, are strongly linked to industrial fermentation processes. This association is considered either positive or undesirable depending on the industry. While in some brewing applications and in kombucha production Brettanomyces yeasts contribute to the flavour and aroma profile of these beverages, in winemaking and bioethanol production Brettanomyces is considered a spoilage or contaminant microorganism. Nevertheless, understanding Brettanomyces biology and metabolism in detail will benefit all industries. This review discusses recent molecular biology tools including genomics, transcriptomics and genetic engineering techniques that can improve our understanding of Brettanomyces physiology and how these approaches can be used to make the industrial potential of this species a reality.

Abstract
Wine fermentation is a representation of complex higher-order microbial interactions. Despite the beneficial properties that these communities bring to wine, their complexity poses challenges in predicting the nature and outcome of fermentation. Technological developments in synthetic biology enable the potential to engineer synthetic microbial communities for new purposes. Here we present the challenges and applications of engineered yeast communities in the context of a wine fermentation vessel, how this represents a model system to enable novel solutions for winemaking and introduce the concept of a 'synthetic' terroir. Furthermore, we introduce our vision for the application of control engineering.

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.

Wine Spoilage Control: Impact of Saccharomycin on Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Its Conjugated Effect with Sulfur Dioxide. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9122528.

Abstract
The yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis is one of the most dangerous wine contaminants due to the production of phenolic off-flavors such as 4-ethylphenol. This microbial hazard is regularly tackled by addition of sulfur dioxide (SO2). Nevertheless, B. bruxellensis is frequently found at low levels (ca 103 cells/mL) in finished wines. Besides, consumers health concerns regarding the use of sulfur dioxide encouraged the search for alternative biocontrol measures. Recently, we found that Saccharomyces cerevisiae secretes a natural biocide (saccharomycin) that inhibits the growth of different B. bruxellensis strains during alcoholic fermentation. Here we investigated the ability of S. cerevisiae CCMI 885 to prevent B. bruxellensis ISA 2211 growth and 4-ethylphenol production in synthetic and true grape must fermentations. Results showed that B. bruxellensis growth and 4-ethylphenol production was significantly inhibited in both media, although the effect was more pronounced in synthetic grape must. The natural biocide was added to a simulated wine inoculated with 5 × 102 cells/mL of B. bruxellensis, which led to loss of culturability and viability (100% dead cells at day-12). The conjugated effect of saccharomycin with SO2 was evaluated in simulated wines at 10, 12, 13 and 14% (v/v) ethanol. Results showed that B. bruxellensis proliferation in wines at 13 and 14% (v/v) ethanol was completely prevented by addition of 1.0 mg/mL of saccharomycin with 25 mg/L of SO2, thus allowing to significantly reduce the SO2 levels commonly used in wines (150–200 mg/L).

Abstract
Polyploidization events are observed across the tree of life and occur in many fungi, plant, and animal species. During evolution, polyploidy is thought to be an important source of speciation and tumorigenesis. However, the origin of polyploid populations is not always clear, and little is known about the precise nature and structure of their complex genome. Using a long-read sequencing strategy, we sequenced 71 strains from the Brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast species, which is found in anthropized environments (e.g., beer, contaminant of wine, kombucha, and ethanol production) and characterized by several polyploid subpopulations. To reconstruct the polyploid genomes, we phased them by using different strategies and found that each subpopulation had a unique polyploidization history with distinct trajectories. The polyploid genomes contain either genetically closely related (with a genetic divergence <1%) or diverged copies (>3%), indicating auto- as well as allopolyploidization events. These latest events have occurred independently with a specific and unique donor in each of the polyploid subpopulations and exclude the known Brettanomyces sister species as possible donors. Finally, loss of heterozygosity events has shaped the structure of these polyploid genomes and underline their dynamics. Overall, our study highlights the multiplicity of the trajectories leading to polyploid genomes within the same species.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a valuable biopolymer typically observed in Kombucha with many potential food applications. Many studies highlight yeast's roles in providing reducing sugars, used by the bacteria to grow and produce BC. However, whether yeast could enhance the BC yields remains unclear. This study investigates the effect of yeast Dekkera bruxellensis on bacteria Komagataeibacter intermedius growth and BC production in molasses medium. The results showed that the co-culture stimulated K. intermedius by ~2 log CFU/mL, which could be attributed to enhanced reducing sugar utilization. However, BC yields decreased by ~24%, suggesting a negative impact of D. bruxellensis on BC production. In contrast to other studies, regardless of D. bruxellensis, K. intermedius increased the pH to ~9.0, favoring the BC production. Furthermore, pH increase was slower in co-culture as compared to single culture cultivation, which could be the reason for lower BC yields. This study indicates that co-culture could promote synergistic growth but results in the BC yield reduction. This knowledge can help design a more controlled fermentation process for optimum bacterial growth and, ultimately, BC production.

Abstract
While the trend in winemaking is toward reducing the inputs and especially sulphites utilization, emerging technologies for the preservation of wine is a relevant topic for the industry. Amongst yeast spoilage in wine, Brettanomyces bruxellensis is undoubtedly the most feared. In this study, UV-C treatment is investigated. This non-thermal technique is widely used for food preservation. A first approach was conducted using a drop-platted system to compare the sensitivity of various strains to UV-C surface treatment. 147 strains distributed amongst fourteen yeast species related to wine environment were assessed for six UV-C doses. An important variability in UV-C response was observed at the interspecific level. Interestingly, cellar resident species, which are mainly associated with wine spoilage, shows higher sensitivity to UV-C than vineyard-resident species. A focus on B. bruxellensis species with 104 screened strains highlighted an important effect of the UV-C, with intra-specific variation. This intra-specific variation was confirmed on 6 strains in liquid red wine by using a home-made pilot. 6624 J.L-1 was enough for a reduction of 5 log10 of magnitude for 5 upon 6 strains. These results highlight the potential of UV-C utilization against wine yeast spoiler at cellar scale.

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 considered one of the most problematic microbes associated with wine production. Sulfur dioxide is commonly used to inhibit the growth of B. bruxellensis and limit the potential wine spoilage. Brettanomyces bruxellensis wine isolates can grow at higher concentrations of this preservative than isolates from other sources. Thus, it has been suggested that the use of sulfite may have selected for B. bruxellensis strains better adapted to survive in the winemaking environment. We utilized laboratory adaptive evolution to determine the potential for this to occur. Three B. bruxellensis strains, representative of known genetic variation within the species, were subjected to increasing sublethal sulfur dioxide concentrations. Individual clones isolated from evolved populations displayed enhanced sulfite tolerance, ranging from 1.6 to 2.5 times higher than the corresponding parental strains. Whole-genome sequencing of sulfite-tolerant clones derived from two of the parental strains revealed structural variations affecting 270 genes. The region containing the sulfite efflux pump encoding gene, SSU1, showed clear copy number variants in all sequenced clones. Regardless of parental strain genetic background, SSU1 copy number changes were reproducibly associated with one SSU1 haplotype. This work clearly demonstrates adaptive evolution of B. bruxellensis when exposed to sublethal sulfites and suggests that, similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae wine yeast, the mechanism responsible involves the gene SSU1.

Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9030587. [PMID: 33809238 PMCID: PMC7999561 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9030587] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2021] [Revised: 03/03/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
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
Nowadays, the use of sulfur dioxide (SO2) during the winemaking process is a controversial societal issue. In order to reduce its use, various alternatives are emerging, in particular bioprotection by adding yeasts, with different impacts on yeast microbiota in early winemaking stages. In this study, quantitative-PCR and metabarcoding high-throughput sequencing (HTS) were combined with MALDI-TOF-MS to monitor yeast population dynamic and diversity in the early stages of red winemaking process without sulfites and with bioprotection by Torulaspora delbrueckii and Metschnikowia pulcherrima addition. By using standard procedures for yeast protein extraction and a laboratory-specific database of wine yeasts, identification at species level of 95% of the isolates was successfully achieved by MALDI-TOF-MS, thus confirming that it is a promising method for wine yeast identification. The different approaches confirmed the implantation and the niche occupation of bioprotection leading to the decrease of fungal communities (HTS) and Hanseniaspora uvarum cultivable population (MALDI-TOF MS). Yeast and fungi diversity was impacted by stage of maceration and, to a lesser extent, by bioprotection and SO2, resulting in a modification of the nature and abundance of the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) diversity.

Abstract
For 15 years, non-Saccharomyces starter cultures represent a new interesting segment in the dynamic field of multinationals and national companies that develop and sell microbial-based biotechnological solutions for the wine sector. Although the diversity and the properties of non- Saccharomyces species/strains have been recently fully reviewed, less attention has been deserved to the commercial starter cultures in term of scientific findings, patents, and their innovative applications. Considering the potential reservoir of biotechnological innovation, these issues represent an underestimated possible driver of coordination and harmonization of research and development activities in the field of wine microbiology. After a wide survey, we encompassed 26 different commercial yeasts starter cultures formulated in combination with at least one non-Saccharomyces strain. The most recent scientific advances have been explored delving into the oenological significance of these commercial starter cultures. Finally, we propose an examination of patent literature for the main yeasts species commercialised in non-Saccharomyces based products. We highlight the presence of asymmetries among scientific findings and the number of patents concerning non-Saccharomyces-based commercial products for oenological purposes. Further investigations on these microbial resources might open new perspectives and stimulate attractive innovations in the field of wine-making biotechnologies.

Abstract
This review reports recent knowledge on the role of ingredients (barley, hop and yeasts), including genetic factors, on the final yield of phenolic compounds in beer, and how these molecules generally affect resulting beer attributes, focusing mainly on new attempts at the enrichment of beer phenols, with fruits or cereals other than barley. An entire section is dedicated to health-related effects, analyzing the degree up to which studies, investigating phenols-related health effects of beer, have appropriately considered the contribution of alcohol (pure or spirits) intake. For such purpose, we searched Scopus.com for any kind of experimental model (in vitro, animal, human observational or intervention) using beer and considering phenols. Overall, data reported so far support the existence of the somehow additive or synergistic effects of phenols and ethanol present in beer. However, findings are inconclusive and thus deserve further animal and human studies.

Abstract
The question of how phenotypic and genomic complexity are inter-related and how they are shaped through evolution is a central question in biology that historically has been approached from the perspective of animals and plants. In recent years, however, fungi have emerged as a promising alternative system to address such questions. Key to their ecological success, fungi present a broad and diverse range of phenotypic traits. Fungal cells can adopt many different shapes, often within a single species, providing them with great adaptive potential. Fungal cellular organizations span from unicellular forms to complex, macroscopic multicellularity, with multiple transitions to higher or lower levels of cellular complexity occurring throughout the evolutionary history of fungi. Similarly, fungal genomes are very diverse in their architecture. Deep changes in genome organization can occur very quickly, and these phenomena are known to mediate rapid adaptations to environmental changes. Finally, the biochemical complexity of fungi is huge, particularly with regard to their secondary metabolites, chemical products that mediate many aspects of fungal biology, including ecological interactions. Herein, we explore how the interplay of these cellular, genomic and metabolic traits mediates the emergence of complex phenotypes, and how this complexity is shaped throughout the evolutionary history of Fungi.

Carbohydrate composition of red wines during early aging and incidence on spoilage by Brettanomyces bruxellensis. Food Microbiol 2020; 92:103577.

Abstract
Wine is generally considered as hostile medium in which spoilage microbes have to manage with many abiotic factors among which low nutrient content. Wines elaborated in 8 wineries were sampled during the first summer of aging over two consecutive vintages, and analysed for carbohydrate composition. This revealed the systematic presence of many carbohydrates including those useful for the spoilage yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis. However, during the first summer of aging, the changes in wine carbohydrate composition were low and it was difficult to assess how much carbohydrate composition contributed to wine spoilage by B. bruxellensis. Subsequent laboratory experiments in inoculated wines showed that the sugars preferentially consumed in wine by the spoilage yeast are d-glucose, d-fructose, and trehalose, whatever the yeast strain considered. The addition of these sugars to red wines accelerates the yeast growth and the volatile phenols formation. Although probably not the only promoting factor, the presence of high amounts of metabolisable sugars thus really increases the risk of "brett" spoilage.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is the main spoilage microbial agent in red wines. The use of fungal chitosan has been authorized since 2009 as a curative treatment to eliminate this yeast in conventional wines and in 2018 in organic wines. As this species is known to exhibit great genetic and phenotypic diversity, we examined whether all the strains responded the same way to chitosan treatment. A collection of 53 strains of B. bruxellensis was used. In the conditions of the reference test, all were at least temporarily affected by the addition of chitosan to wine, with significant decrease of cultivable population. Some (41%) were very sensitive and no cultivable yeast was detected in wine or lees after 3 days of treatment, while others (13%) were tolerant and, after a slight drop in cultivability, resumed growth between 3 and 10 days and remained able to produce spoilage compounds. There were also many strains with intermediate behavior. The strain behavior was only partially linked to the strain genetic group. This behavior was little modulated by the physiological state of the strain or the dose of chitosan used (within the limits of the authorized doses). On the other hand, for a given strain, the sensitivity to chitosan treatment was modulated by the chitosan used and by the properties of the wine in which the treatment was carried out.

Abstract
The budding yeast has been extensively studied for its physiological performance in fermentative environments and, due to its remarkable plasticity, is used in numerous industrial applications like in brewing, baking and wine fermentations. Furthermore, thanks to its small and relatively simple eukaryotic genome, the molecular mechanisms behind its evolution and domestication are more easily explored. Considerable work has been directed into examining the industrial adaptation processes that shaped the genotypes of species and hybrids belonging to the Saccharomyces group, specifically in relation to beverage fermentation performances. A variety of genetic mechanisms are responsible for the yeast response to stress conditions, such as genome duplication, chromosomal re-arrangements, hybridization and horizontal gene transfer, and these genetic alterations are also contributing to the diversity in the Saccharomyces industrial strains. Here, we review the recent genetic and evolutionary studies exploring domestication and biodiversity of yeast strains.

Abstract
Chromosomal rearrangements (CR) such as translocations, duplications and inversions play a decisive role in the adaptation of microorganisms to specific environments. In enological Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, CR involving the promoter region of the gene SSU1 lead to a higher sulfite tolerance by enhancing the SO2 efflux. To date, three different SSU1 associated CR events have been described, including translocations XV-t-XVI and VIII-t-XVI and inversion inv-XVI. In the present study, we developed a multiplex PCR method (SSU1 checkup) that allows a rapid characterization of these three chromosomal configurations in a single experiment. Nearly 600 S. cerevisiae strains collected from fermented grape juice were genotyped by microsatellite markers. We demonstrated that alleles of the SSU1 promoter are differently distributed according to the wine environment (cellar versus vineyard) and the nature of the grape juice. Moreover, rearranged SSU1 promoters are significantly enriched among commercial starters. In addition, the analysis of nearly isogenic strains collected in wine related environments demonstrated that the inheritance of these CR shapes the genetic diversity of clonal populations. Finally, the link between the nature of SSU1 promoter and the tolerance to sulfite was statistically validated in natural grape juice containing various SO2 concentrations. The SSU1 checkup is therefore a convenient new tool for addressing population genetics questions and for selecting yeast strains by using molecular markers.

Abstract
Brettanomyces yeasts have gained popularity in many sectors of the biotechnological industry, specifically in the field of beer production, but also in wine and ethanol production. Their unique properties enable Brettanomyces to outcompete conventional brewer’s yeast in industrially relevant traits such as production of ethanol and pleasant flavors. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) and high-throughput screening techniques have facilitated large population studies allowing the selection of appropriate yeast strains with improved traits. In order to get a better understanding of Brettanomyces species and its potential for beer production, we sequenced the whole genome of 84 strains, which we make available to the scientific community and carried out several in vitro assays for brewing-relevant properties. The collection includes isolates from different substrates and geographical origin. Additionally, we have included two of the oldest Carlsberg Research Laboratory isolates. In this study, we reveal the phylogenetic pattern of Brettanomyces species by comparing the predicted proteomes of each strain. Furthermore, we show that the Brettanomyces collection is well described using similarity in genomic organization, and that there is a direct correlation between genomic background and phenotypic characteristics. Particularly, genomic patterns affecting flavor production, maltose assimilation, beta-glucosidase activity, and phenolic off-flavor (POF) production are reported. This knowledge yields new insights into Brettanomyces population survival strategies, artificial selection pressure, and loss of carbon assimilation traits. On a species-specific level, we have identified for the first time a POF negative Brettanomyces anomalus strain, without the main spoilage character of Brettanomyces species. This strain (CRL-90) has lost DaPAD1, making it incapable of converting ferulic acid to 4-ethylguaiacol (4-EG) and 4-ethylphenol (4-EP). This loss of function makes CRL-90 a good candidate for the production of characteristic Brettanomyces flavors in beverages, without the contaminant increase in POF. Overall, this study displays the potential of exploring Brettanomyces yeast species biodiversity to find strains with relevant properties applicable to the brewing industry.

Abstract
Background Yeasts of the genus Brettanomyces are of significant interest, both for their capacity to spoil, as well as their potential to positively contribute to different industrial fermentations. However, considerable variance exists in the depth of research and knowledgebase of the five currently known species of Brettanomyces. For instance, Brettanomyces bruxellensis has been heavily studied and many resources are available for this species, whereas Brettanomyces nanus is rarely studied and lacks a publicly available genome assembly altogether. The purpose of this study is to fill this knowledge gap and explore the genomic adaptations that have shaped the evolution of this genus. Results Strains for each of the five widely accepted species of Brettanomyces (Brettanomyces anomalus, B. bruxellensis, Brettanomyces custersianus, Brettanomyces naardenensis, and B. nanus) were sequenced using a combination of long- and short-read sequencing technologies. Highly contiguous assemblies were produced for each species. Structural differences between the species’ genomes were observed with gene expansions in fermentation-relevant genes (particularly in B. bruxellensis and B. nanus) identified. Numerous horizontal gene transfer (HGT) events in all Brettanomyces species’, including an HGT event that is probably responsible for allowing B. bruxellensis and B. anomalus to utilize sucrose were also observed. Conclusions Genomic adaptations and some evidence of domestication that have taken place in Brettanomyces are outlined. These new genome assemblies form a valuable resource for future research in Brettanomyces.

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.

New advances on the Brettanomyces bruxellensis biofilm mode of life. Int J Food Microbiol 2019; 318:108464.

Abstract
The wine spoilage yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis can be found at several steps in the winemaking process due to its resistance to multiple stress conditions. The ability to form biofilm is a potential resistance strategy, although it has been given little attention so far for this yeast. In this work, the capacity to form biofilm and its structure were explored in YPD medium and in wine. Using microsatellite analysis, 65 isolates were discriminated into 5 different genetic groups from which 12 strains were selected. All 12 strains were able to form biofilm in YPD medium on a polystyrene surface. The presence of microcolonies, filamentous cells and extracellular polymeric substances, constituting the structure of the biofilm despite a small thickness, were highlighted using confocal and electronic microscopy. Moreover, different cell morphologies according to genetic groups were highlighted. The capacity to form biofilm in wine was also revealed for two selected strains. The impact of wine on biofilms was demonstrated with firstly considerable biofilm cell release and secondly growth of these released biofilm cells, both in a strain dependent manner. Finally, B. bruxellensis has been newly described as a producer of chlamydospore-like structures in wine, for both planktonic and biofilm lifestyles.

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
Climate change threatens food systems, with huge repercussions on food security and on the safety and quality of final products. We reviewed the potential of food microbiology as a source of biotechnological solutions to design climate-smart food systems, using wine as a model productive sector. Climate change entails considerable problems for the sustainability of oenology in several geographical regions, also placing at risk the wine typicity. The main weaknesses identified are: (i) The increased undesired microbial proliferation; (ii) the improved sugars and, consequently, ethanol content; (iii) the reduced acidity and increased pH; (iv) the imbalanced perceived sensory properties (e.g., colour, flavour); and (v) the intensified safety issues (e.g., mycotoxins, biogenic amines). In this paper, we offer an overview of the potential microbial-based strategies suitable to cope with the five challenges listed above. In terms of microbial diversity, our principal focus was on microorganisms isolated from grapes/musts/wines and on microbes belonging to the main categories with a recognized positive role in oenological processes, namely Saccharomyces spp. (e.g., Saccharomyces cerevisiae), non-Saccharomyces yeasts (e.g., Metschnikowia pulcherrima, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Lachancea thermotolerans, and Starmerella bacillaris), and malolactic bacteria (e.g., Oenococcus oeni, Lactobacillus plantarum).

Abstract
Dekkera bruxellensis is an industrial yeast mainly regarded as a contaminant species in fermentation processes. In winemaking, it is associated with off-flavours that cause wine spoilage, while in bioethanol production this yeast is linked to a reduction of industrial productivity by competing with Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the substrate. In spite of that, this point of view is gradually changing, mostly because D. bruxellensis is also able to produce important metabolites, such as ethanol, acetate, fusel alcohols, esters and others. This dual role is likely due to the fact that this yeast presents a set of metabolic traits that might be either industrially attractive or detrimental, depending on how they are faced and explored. Therefore, a proper industrial application for D. bruxellensis depends on the correct assembly of its central metabolic puzzle. In this sense, researchers have addressed issues regarding the physiological and genetic aspects of D. bruxellensis, which have brought to light much of our current knowledge on this yeast. In this review, we shall outline what is presently understood about the main metabolic features of D. bruxellensis and how they might be managed to improve its current or future industrial applications (except for winemaking, in which it is solely regarded as a contaminant). Moreover, we will discuss the advantages and challenges that must be overcome in order to take advantage of the full biotechnological potential of this yeast.

Abstract
Brettanomyces bruxellensis is usually considered a spoilage microorganism, responsible for significant economic losses during the production of fermented beverages such as wine, beer and cider, though for some styles of beer its influence is essential. In recent years, the competitiveness of this yeast in bioethanol production processes has brought to attention its broader biotechnological potential. Furthermore, the species has evolved key fermentation traits in parallel with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Attempts to better understand B. bruxellensis physiology through genomics-driven research have been hampered by a lack of functional genomics tools. Genetic transformation for B. bruxellensis has only been developed recently and with limited efficiency. Here we describe gene transformation cassettes tailored for B. bruxellensis, which provide multiple drug-resistant markers and the ability to tag B. bruxellensis with different fluorescent proteins. All marker cassettes resulted in increased transformation efficiency compared to the maximum reported in literature, with one cassette, TDH1p natMX, showing five times greater efficiency. Transformation cassettes encoding fluorescent proteins enabled discrimination between subpopulations of transformed B. bruxellensis cells by flow cytometry and fluorescent microscopy. Thus, the genetic transformation toolkit described here unlocks several molecular applications such as strain tagging, insertional mutagenesis and potentially targeted gene deletion.

Abstract
Here, we present the genome of the industrial ethanol production strain Brettanomyces bruxellensis CBS 11270. The nuclear genome was found to be diploid, containing four chromosomes with sizes of ranging from 2.2 to 4.0 Mbp. A 75 Kbp mitochondrial genome was also identified. Comparing the homologous chromosomes, we detected that 0.32% of nucleotides were polymorphic, i.e. formed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), 40.6% of them were found in coding regions (i.e. 0.13% of all nucleotides formed SNPs and were in coding regions). In addition, 8,538 indels were found. The total number of protein coding genes was 4897, of them, 4,284 were annotated on chromosomes; and the mitochondrial genome contained 18 protein coding genes. Additionally, 595 genes, which were annotated, were on contigs not associated with chromosomes. A number of genes was duplicated, most of them as tandem repeats, including a six-gene cluster located on chromosome 3. There were also examples of interchromosomal gene duplications, including a duplication of a six-gene cluster, which was found on both chromosomes 1 and 4. Gene copy number analysis suggested loss of heterozygosity for 372 genes. This may reflect adaptation to relatively harsh but constant conditions of continuous fermentation. Analysis of gene topology showed that most of these losses occurred in clusters of more than one gene, the largest cluster comprising 33 genes. Comparative analysis against the wine isolate CBS 2499 revealed 88,534 SNPs and 8,133 indels. Moreover, when the scaffolds of the CBS 2499 genome assembly were aligned against the chromosomes of CBS 11270, many of them aligned completely, some have chunks aligned to different chromosomes, and some were in fact rearranged. Our findings indicate a highly dynamic genome within the species B. bruxellensis and a tendency towards reduction of gene number in long-term continuous cultivation.

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
Brettanomyces bruxellensis has been described as the principal spoilage yeast in the winemaking industry. To avoid its growth, wine is supplemented with SO2, which has been questioned due to its potential harm to health. For this reason, studies are being focused on searching for, ideally, natural new antifungals. On the other hand, it is known that in wine production there are a variety of microorganisms, such as yeasts and bacteria, that are possible biological controls. Thus, it has been described that some microorganisms produce antimicrobial peptides, which might control yeast and bacteria populations. Our laboratory has described the Candida intermedia LAMAP1790 strain as a natural producer of antimicrobial compounds against food spoilage microorganisms, as is B. bruxellensis, without affecting the growth of S. cerevisiae. We have demonstrated the proteinaceous nature of the antimicrobial compound and its low molecular mass (under 10 kDa). This is the first step to the possible use of C. intermedia as a selective bio-controller of the contaminant yeast in the winemaking industry.

Brettanomyces bruxellensis SSU1 Haplotypes Confer Different Levels of Sulfite Tolerance When Expressed in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae SSU1 Null Mutant. Appl Environ Microbiol 2019; 85:AEM.02429-18.

Abstract
The addition of SO2 is practiced in the wine industry to mitigate the risk of microbial spoilage and to extend wine shelf-life. Generally, this strategy does not interfere with primary alcoholic fermentation, as wine strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae exhibit significant SO2 tolerance, largely driven by the efflux pump Ssu1p. One of the key yeast species responsible for wine spoilage is Brettanomyces bruxellensis, which also exhibits strain-dependent SO2 tolerance, although this occurs via unknown mechanisms. To evaluate the factors responsible for the differential sulfite tolerance observed in B. bruxellensis strains, we employed a multifaceted approach to examine both expression and allelic differences in the BbSSU1 gene. Transcriptomic analysis following exposure to SO2 highlighted different inducible responses in two B. bruxellensis strains. It also revealed disproportionate transcription of one putative BbSSU1 haplotype in both genetic backgrounds. Here, we confirm the functionality of BbSSU1 by complementation of a null mutant in a S. cerevisiae wine strain. The expression of four distinct BbSSU1 haplotypes in the S. cerevisiae ΔSSU1 mutant revealed up to a 3-fold difference in conferred SO2 tolerance. Substitution of key amino acids distinguishing the encoded proteins was performed to evaluate their relative contribution to SO2 tolerance. Protein modeling of two haplotypes which differed in two amino acid residues suggested that these substitutions affect the binding of Ssu1p ligands near the channel opening. Taken together, preferential transcription of a BbSSU1 allele that encodes a more efficient Ssu1p transporter may represent one mechanism that contributes to differences in sulfite tolerances between B. bruxellensis strains.IMPORTANCE Brettanomyces bruxellensis is one of the most important wine spoilage microorganisms, with the use of sulfite being the major method to control spoilage. However, this species displays a wide intraspecies distribution in sulfite tolerance, with some strains capable of tolerating high concentrations of SO2, with relatively high concentrations of this antimicrobial needed for their control. Although SO2 tolerance has been studied in several organisms and particularly in S. cerevisiae, little is known about the mechanisms that confer SO2 tolerance in B. bruxellensis Here, we confirmed the functionality of the sulfite efflux pump encoded by BbSSU1 and determined the efficiencies of four different BbSSU1 haplotypes. Gene expression analysis showed greater expression of the haplotype conferring greater SO2 tolerance. Our results suggest that a combination of BbSSU1 haplotype efficiency, copy number, and haplotype expression levels likely contributes to the diverse SO2 tolerances observed for different B. bruxellensis strains.

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.
