Popis: The understanding of the yeast population dynamics during spontaneous alcoholic fermentation allows to preserve the microbial biodiversity, to use as indigenous fermentation starters so and to improve the organoleptic and sensory properties of the produced wines. However, it is similarly important to investigate the safety aspects of microbial biodiversity, in particular, on the undesired production of biogenic amines (BAs), low-molecular-weight organic bases produced in wine by the activity of microbial-specific amino acid decarboxylases. This study is the first large-scale investigation on vineyard-associated yeast strains from Apulia (Southern Italy). Eight natural must fermentations were carried out by sampling grape (Vitis vinifera) in the most significant production areas for Negroamaro and Primitivo cultivars: Torchiarolo, Copertino, Cutrofiano and Melissano for the former, Galatina, Torchiarolo, Manduria and Gioia del Colle areas for the latter. Yeasts isolates were identified by PCR ribotyping and bioinformatic analysis of the rRNA Internal region denoted as Transcribed Spacer (ITS). The Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were further identified and differentiate as strain level by evaluating the polymorphism of their interdelta elements. The results of the molecular analyses revealed the presence of twenty different species belonging to 9 genera. In particular, Hanseniaspora uvarum, Metschnikowia pulcherrima and Aureobasidium pullulans were the dominant strains on the grape surface, whereas M. pulcherrima and H. uvarum were predominant during the early fermentation stage. We identified 692 S. cerevisiae isolates and a number of different strain in each of the 8 fermentations strains, ranging from 26 to 55, The strains were assayed for BAs production, either in synthetic media or grape must. Two Pichia manshurica, an Issatchenkia terricola and a M. pulcherrima strains were capable to produce in wine histamine and cadaverine. The production of BAs in the synthetic medium was dissimilar than that detected in wine, thus enhancing significance to assess the yeast BAs production by an "in grape must" assay, in order to reducethe potential health risk for consumer represented by these spoilage yeasts. To the best of our knowledge, this is the primary study regarding the biodiversity and safety aspects of grape-associated yeast strains in this important wine-producing area of Southern Italy.
