ABSTRACT
Elucidation of the relationship between fungal community development and dynamic changes in volatile components during fermentation is of great significance in controlling wine production. However, such studies on an industrial scale are rarely reported. In this study, fungal community succession during spontaneous fermentation (SPF) and inoculation fermentation (INF) of Merlot wine was monitored by a research strategy combining culture-dependent and culture-independent methods. The volatile compounds were monitored during SPF and INF by headspace solid-phase micro-extraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technology. The Spearman correlation coefficient was also used to investigate the interplay between fungal communities and volatile compounds. We found that fungal community diversity in SPF decreased as fermentation progressed but was significantly higher than that of INF. Starmerella and Kazachstania were the dominant non-Saccharomyces genera in Merlot wine during SPF. However, the presence of commercial yeasts and sulphur dioxide led to a sharp decrease or the disappearance of non-Saccharomyces genera during INF. Spearman correlation analysis revealed that all major volatiles were positively correlated with most functional microbiotas except P. fermentans, S. bacillaris, E. necator, and D. exigua in INF. In SPF, most non-Saccharomyces were negatively correlated with core volatiles, whereas K. humilis, M. laxa, P. kluyveri, and A. japonicus were positively correlated with the major volatiles, especially some higher alcohols (isopentol, heptanol) and terpenes (linalool, citronellol). S. cerevisiae was positively correlated with most of the main volatile substances except ethyl isovalerate and isoamyl acetate. These findings provide a reference for comprehending the diverse fermentation methods employed in the wine industry and improving the quality of Merlot wines.
