Origines des levures Saccharomyces et non-Saccharomyces présentes dans le moût : Vignoble ou cuverie ?
International audience; Les levures de l’espèce Saccharomyces cerevisiae ont longtemps été considérées comme les seules responsables du processus de fermentation. On sait aujourd’hui que différentes espèces de levures Saccharomyces et non-Saccharomyces (NS) sont présentes dans les moûts et qu’un certain nombre d’entre elles participe à la fermentation alcoolique (FA). Bien qu’il soit aujourd’hui largement admis que les principales sources de levures dans le moût de raisin sont les baies de raisin et le matériel de vinification (Fleet et Heard, 1993 ; Mortimer et Polsinelli, 1999) (figure 1), la part apportée par chacune de ces deux sources est encore mal définie. De plus, d’autres sources p…
Diversity of yeast strains of the genus Hanseniaspora in the winery environment: What is their involvement in grape must fermentation?
Isolated yeast populations of Chardonnay grape must during spontaneous fermentation were compared to those isolated on grape berries and in a winery environment before the arrival of the harvest (air, floor, winery equipment) and in the air through time. Two genera of yeast, Hanseniaspora and Saccharomyces, were isolated in grape must and in the winery environment before the arrival of the harvest but not on grape berries. The genus Hanseniaspora represented 27% of isolates in the must and 35% of isolates in the winery environment. The isolates of these two species were discriminated at the strain level by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The diversity of these strains observed in t…
Persistence of Two Non-Saccharomyces Yeasts (Hanseniaspora and Starmerella) in the Cellar
International audience; Different genera and/or species of yeasts present on grape berries, in musts and wines are widely described. Nevertheless, the community of non-Saccharomyces yeasts present in the cellar is still given little attention. Thus it is not known if the cellar is a real ecological niche for these yeasts or if it is merely a transient habitat for populations brought in by grape berries during the winemaking period. This study focused on three species of non-Saccharomyces yeasts commonly encountered during vinification: Starmerella bacillaris (synonymy with Candida zemplinina), Hanseniaspora guilliermondii and Hanseniaspora uvarum. More than 1200 isolates were identified at …
FT-IR spectroscopy : A powerful tool for studying the inter- and intraspecific biodiversity of cultivable non-Saccharomyces yeasts isolated from grape must
International audience; The efficiency of the FT-IR technique for studying the inter- and intra biodiversity of cultivable non-Saccharomyces yeasts (NS) present in different must samples was examined. In first, the capacity of the technique FF-IR to study the global diversity of a given sample was compared to the pyrosequencing method, used as a reference technique. Seven different genera (Aureobasidium, Candida, Cryptococcus, Hanseniaspora, Issatchenkia, Metschnikowia and Pichia) were identified by FT-IR and also by pyrosequencing. Thirty-eight other genera were identified by pyrosequencing, but together they represented less than 6% of the average total population of 6 musts. Among the sp…
