Presence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae subsp. diastaticus in industry and nature and spoilage capacity of its vegetative cells and ascospores

Saccharomyces cerevisiae sub-species diastaticus (S. diastaticus) is the main fungal cause of spoilage of carbonated fermented beverages in the brewing industry. Here, prevalence of S. diastaticus in nature and breweries was assessed as well as the spoilage capacity of its vegetative cells and spore...

Description
Summary:Saccharomyces cerevisiae sub-species diastaticus (S. diastaticus) is the main fungal cause of spoilage of carbonated fermented beverages in the brewing industry. Here, prevalence of S. diastaticus in nature and breweries was assessed as well as the spoilage capacity of its vegetative cells and spores. S. diastaticus could only be enriched from 1 out of 136 bark and soil samples from the Netherlands, being the first described natural isolate of this yeast outside South America. On the other hand, it was identified by PCR and selective enrichment in 25 and 21 out of 54 biofilm samples from beer filling halls in Asia, Africa, Europe and North America. ITS sequencing revealed that S. cerevisiae (including S. diastaticus) represented
