“…Yeast species diversity in sourdough has been well described in Italy, Belgium, and France (Figures 2 and 3, Table S1). We analysed the data obtained for 97 wheat sourdoughs (including possibly also other cereals) described individually (Almeida & Pais, 1996;Corsetti et al, 2001;Decimo, Quattrini, Ricci, Fortina, & Express, 2017;Desiye & Abegaz, 2013;Foschino, Gallina, Andrighetto, Rossetti, & Galli, 2004;Gabriel, Lefebvre, Vayssier, & Faucher, 1999;Garofalo, Silvestri, Aquilanti, & Clementi, 2008;Infantes & Schmidt, 1992;Lacumin et al, 2009;Lattanzi et al, 2013;Lhomme et al, 2015;Lhomme et al, 2016;Mäntynen et al, 1999;Minervini et al, 2015;Obiri-Danso, 1994;Osimani et al, 2009;Pulvirenti, Caggia, Restuccia, Gullo, & Giudici, 2001;Saeed Anjum, Zahoor, Nawaz, & Sajjad-Ur-Rehman, 2009;Salovaara & Savolainen, 1984;Scheirlinck et al, 2007;Spicher & Schröder, 1978;Succi et al 2003;Vrancken et al, 2010;Valmorri, Tofalo, Settanni, Corsetti, & Suzzi, 2010;Zhang et al, 2015;Zhang et al, 2011). S. cerevisiae was found to be present, but not necessarily dominant, in almost 80% of the sourdoughs ( Figure 3).…”
