Pseudomonas sp. MP12 was isolated from a soil sample collected in typical warm-temperate deciduous forest near Brescia, Northern Italy. Phylogenetic analysis identified the species as protegens. We evidenced this strain presence of genes phlD, pltB and prnC responsible for synthesis antifungal compounds 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (2,4-DAPG), pyoluteorin pyrrolnitrin, respectively. P. protegens also shown to produce siderophores ammonia, yielded positive results with indole-3-acetic acid...
In recent years, the concept of "microbial terroir" has been introduced in frame more renowned notion "vitivinicultural terroir', since several studies demonstrated that wine characteristics are related to regional microbial community compositions. Most existing research focused on grape berries microbiota, it can directly impact quality. this work we studied, for first time through next-generation sequencing, epiphytic bacterial vine bark and its relationships with microbiota. The study was...
Thirteen new species are formally described:
ABSTRACT Two PCR-based methods, specific PCR and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR), were used for rapid reliable differentiation of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus L. lactis . with a single combination primers which targeted the proline iminopeptidase ( pepIP ) gene allowed amplification genomic fragments two subspecies when either from colony or cells extracted dairy products used. A numerical analysis RAPD-PCR patterns obtained primer M13 gave results that...

Genetic diversity of Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis strains isolated from naturally fermented sourdoughs different origin was evaluated by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Computer-assisted comparison the RAPD patterns revealed a clear separation L. other obligately heterofermentative species closely related or normally present in sourdough. Six clusters, five them constituted same origin, were recognized at similarity level 63%. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE)...
To explain the role of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and uvarum strains (formerly bayanus var. uvarum) in wine fermentation.Indigenous spp. yeasts were isolated from Amarone (Italy) analysed. Genotypes correlated to phenotypes: Melibiose(-) Melibiose(+) displayed a karyotype characterized by three two bands between 225 365 kb, respectively. Two identified analysis (one as S. other uvarum). The technological characterization these was conducted microvinifications wine. Wines differed contents...
Abstract Aims This study analyzed the fungal diversity in oleic ecosystems adopting a culture-based approach. Methods and Results In all, 66 yeasts 10 filamentous fungi were isolated from samples of olive oil, paste, pomace collected small area oil production northern Italy. Twenty-three 7 taxa identified with molecular method, respectively. Most belonged to species commonly occurring oleic. Conversely, other isolates rarely or never found by-products. Filamentous recorded for first time on...
Abstract Cultures of Oenococcus oeni , the most important malolactic bacterium, are used to induce fermentation in wine. Survival assays two different wines confirmed that cells acclimated for 24 h half‐strength wine‐like medium (acclimation medium) enhanced performances. To investigate effect pre‐incubation phase on cell physiology, a proteomic study was carried out. Total protein extracts and non‐acclimated cultures (control) were analyzed by 2‐D‐PAGE. A total 20 out approximately 400...
To investigate the interactions between Botrytis cinerea and other moulds during grape withering postharvest infection to obtain noble-rotten grapes.Strains of cinerea, Penicillium expansum, crustosum, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium verticilloides Alternaria alternata, isolated from naturally withered grapes identified by molecular tools, were used infect Garganega Corvina grapes. Individually sterilized berries infected a single inoculation each strain or simultaneous B. together with one...
From harvest until wine arrives to the consumer, oxygen plays a crucial role in definition of final aroma. In present research, effect model oxidative aging on dry red Botrytis wine, such as Italian Amarone, was considered. Amarone submitted and then analyzed with two different approaches (SPE-GC-MS HS-SPME/GC-MS). The same sampling plan adopted study anaerobic conditions. HS-SPME/GC-MS method applied investigate for first time vast number fermentative sulfur compounds. This research...
