ABSTRACT
Complex microbiomes of pit mud (PM) play significant roles in imbuing flavors and qualities of Chinese strong-flavor liquor (CSFL) during fermentation. However, understanding both of the taxonomic and functional diversity of the whole microorganisms in PM still remain a major challenge. Here, PM microbiomes were investigated based on metagenomic sequencing, assembly and binning. Metagenomic data revealed that Euryarchaeota was the predominant phylum, followed by Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria. For further functional exploration, 703 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), including 304 novel strains, 197 novel species, and 94 novel genera were reconstructed. Three primary groups of Firmicutes (n = 406), Euryarchaeota (n = 130) and Bacteroidetes (n = 74), particularly genus of them Syntrophomonas, Thermacetogenium and Clostridium, methanogens (Methanobacterium, Methanoculleus, and Methanosarcina), Proteiniphilum and Prevotella, contained most of metabolic potential genes. Additionally, Chloroflexi was firstly reported to have potential to be involved in the caproic acid (CA) production. Bacteroidetes could be the key phylum to synthesize terpenes, and Armatimonadetes, Firmicutes, Ignavibacteriae and Verrucomicrobia may possess the same metabolic potential as well. Overall, this study will significantly improve our understanding of the diverse PM microbiome and help guide the future exploration of microbial resources for modifying PM fermentation processes.
