Abstract

12

One hundred and fifty isolates of Saccharomyces cerevisiae from thirteen Chinese traditional

13

sourdoughs of different regions were obtained and typed into 5 clusters by random amplified

14

polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD) analysis. Then twenty-two S. cerevisiae

15

strains were selected, according to the RAPD profiles, to evaluate their fermentation properties in

16

dough fermentation, and to assess their influences on the texture and flavor of steamed bread. The

17

results showed that the S. cerevisiae strains greatly varied in fermentation capacity and influence

18

on organoleptic property of steamed bread. However, the variation was not apparently related to

19

their genetic diversity distinguished by RAPD. A total of 19 volatile compounds were identified in

the crumb of the steamed breads fermented by the 22 S. cerevisiae strains with ethanol and

21

3-methyl-1-butanol being the most encountered compounds. S. cerevisiae fermentation had a

22

significant effect on textural properties of steamed bread, especially hardness, chewiness and

23

gumminess.

1. Introduction

27

Sourdough, a mixture of flour and water fermented by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast,

28

has been used in making cereal-based fermented products for thousands of years around the world

29

(De Vuyst and Neysens, 2005). In China, sourdough has traditionally served as the starter for the

30

preparation of the staple food Chinese steamed bread (CSB) for more than one thousand years

31

(Wu et al., 2012). Sourdough fermentation confers positive effects to breads by improving dough

32

properties such as volume, texture and flavor, increasing nutritional values and prolonging its

33

shelf life (Vigentini et al., 2014; Zotta et al., 2006) ascribed to the metabolic activities of inherent

34

LAB and yeasts (Zotta et al., 2006).

35

Although the main contribution of yeasts in sourdough fermentation is leavening, they play

36

an important role in aroma formation and texture development (Chavan and Chavan, 2011; Katina

37

et al., 2006). Particularly, Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been considered the predominant yeast in

38

sourdough ecosystems (Minervini et al., 2012; Zhang, Sadiq, et al., 2015; Zhang et al., 2011). S.

39

cerevisiae can rapidly generate CO2 from sugars during fermentation, which results in dough

40

expanding (Heitmann et al., 2016). Moreover, S. cerevisiae improves the flavor of breads by

2

41

producing a wide range of flavor compounds, such as alcohols, aldehydes, acetoin and esters

42

(Birch et al., 2013; Frasse et al., 1992). In addition, the production of glutathione, glycerol and

43

pyruvic acid by S. cerevisiae helps to develop and strengthen gluten network in dough, and leads

44

to a positive effect on the texture of bread (Corsetti et al., 2000; Lampignano et al., 2013;

45

Verheyen et al., 2015).

46

It has been reported that S. cerevisiae showed a phenotypic and genotypic intra-species

47

diversity in sourdoughs (Landry et al., 2006). Thus, the possibility of discriminating at strain level

48

is of great importance for a successful culture selection and starter development. To date, several

49

studies have been conducted to investigate the intra-species diversity of S. cerevisiae (Ayoub et al.,

50

2006; Bogusławska-Wąs et al., 2007; Munoz et al., 2009). However, in most cases, no further

51

information was available regarding the correlation between genetic diversity and fermentative

52

properties in dough fermentation.

53

To the best of the authors' knowledge, the genetic and fermentative diversities of S.

54

cerevisiae in Chinese traditional sourdough have never been collectively investigated and

55

analyzed. This study aimed at delineating the genetic diversity and fermentative properties of S.

56

cerevisiae strains isolated from Chinese traditional sourdoughs of different regions.

57

2. Materials and methods

58

2.1. Sourdough collection

59

Thirteen home-made sourdoughs from ten different provinces in China were sampled in this

60

study. Samples were chosen for their specific origin and were stored immediately at 4 °C once in

61

the laboratory.

3

62

2.2. Yeasts enumeration and isolation

63

Five grams of sourdough was homogenized with 45 mL of sterile peptone water (peptone 1

64

g/L and NaCl 8.5 g/L) solution and decimally diluted. An aliquot of 100 µl of the 10-3 to 10-5

65

dilutions was plated onto yeast extract peptone dextrose (YPD) agar medium (1% yeast extract,

66

2% peptone, 2% dextrose, and 2% agar) supplemented with chloramphenicol (0.1 g/L). Colonies

67

were counted after incubation at 28 °C for 48 h. The plate counts were performed in triplicate. For

68

each sourdough sample, fifteen colonies were randomly picked from the plates of the three

69

dilutions, then purified by successive streak plate method.

70

2.3. Identification of S. cerevisiae strains

71

Based on the colony morphology (Casalone et al., 2005), certain isolates were considered

72

presumptive strains of S. cerevisiae and further identified by 26S rRNA gene sequencing.

73

Genomic DNA from presumptive S. cerevisiae isolate was extracted using a DNA Extraction Kit

74

(Axygen, Hangzhou, China), following the manufacturer’s instructions. The primers, NL1 and

75

NL4 (Di Cagno et al. 2014), were used to amplify the D1/D2 region of the 26S rRNA gene. The

76

PCR products were sequenced by a company (Shanghai Sangon Biotech, Shanghai, China), and

77

the results were compared with those deposited in the GenBank using the BLAST algorithm.

78

Strains showing ≥98% identity with S. cerevisiae were selected for further characterization.

79

2.4. RAPD-PCR analysis

80

Genotypic diversity of S. cerevisiae strains was assessed by RAPD analysis using two primers

81

separately, namely M13 (5’-GAGGGTGGCGGTTCT-3’) (Stenlid et al., 1994) and MV1

82

(5’-GGACGCTTCTG-3’) (Venturi, Guerrini and Vincenzini, 2012). The amplification conditions

4

83

with primer M13 were as follows: preliminary denaturation for 5 min at 94 °C, followed by 34

84

cycles of 94 °C for 1 min, 45 °C for 2 min, 72 °C for 1.5 min, and terminated with an extension at

85

72 °C for 10 min (Liu et al., 2018). The conditions with primer MV1 were set according to

86

Venturi, Guerrini, Granchi, et al. (2012). Breifly, preliminary denaturation for 5 min at 94 °C,

87

followed by 30 cyceles of 94 °C for 1 min, 40 °C for 1 min and 72 °C for 2 min, and terminated

88

with an extension at 72 °C for 10 min. The amplicons were electrophoresed on 1.5% agarose gel

89

supplemented with the DNA dye GelRed Nucleic Acid Gel Stain (Biotium Hayward, Ca, USA)

90

for 5.5 h at a constant voltage of 70 V in 1×TAE (40 mM Tris-acetate, 1 mM EDTA, pH 8.0)

91

buffer and the gel images were captured in a Gel Imaging System (ChampGel 500,

92

SAGECREATION, Beijing, China). BioNumerics version 6.6 software package (Applied Maths,

93

Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium) was used to convert and analyze the resulting fingerprints. RAPD

94

profiles generated with M13 and MV1 primers were integrated to increase the typing efficiency

95

and discriminatory power. According to the RAPD profiles, representative strains were selected

96

and inoculated in a rotary shaking incubator with 180 rpm at 28 °C for 48 h. The cells were

97

collected by centrifugation at 3800×g for 10 min and washed twice with sterile distilled water for

98

subsequent experiments.

99

2.5. Leavening ability determination

100

The leavening ability of the selected S. cerevisiae isolates was measured according to the

101

methods described by Liu et al. (2018). The dough was inoculated with S. cerevisiae at an

102

inoculum size of 107 cfu/g. Leavening ability was expressed by volume (milliliter) of CO2

5

103

produced at 30 °C in one hour. Experiments were performed in triplicate and dough without

104

inoculation was set as a negative control.

105

2.6. Glucose fermentation determination

106

Wheat flour, water and yeast cells (inoculum size of 107 cfu/g dough) were mixed to obtain a

107

dough with a dough yield (dough weight × 100/flour weight) of 150 and placed in an incubator at

108

30 °C and 80% RH for 2 h (STIK (Shanghai) Co., Ltd, China). Ten grams of dough was

109

homogenized with 90 mL of distilled water for 15 min using a magnetic stirrer (IKA basic 2 RH,

110

Germany) until the sample was thoroughly suspended. Then, the suspension was centrifuged at

111

3800 × g for 10 min. The concentration of glucose in supernatant was measured using a glucose

112

content assay kit (Shanghai Rongsheng Biotech Co., Ltd.). Experiments were performed in

113

triplicate and the dough without inoculation was used as a control.

114

2.7. Steamed bread manufacturing

115

The steamed bread was made according to the method given by Liu et al. (2018). Wheat flour,

116

water and the cells of S. cerevisiae (inoculum size of 107 cfu/g dough) were thoroughly mixed in a

117

mixer (HMJ-D3826, Guangdong bear electric Co., Ltd. China) for 10 min to form a dough with a

118

dough yield of 150. Afterwards, the dough was shaped manually and placed in an incubator at

119

30 °C and 80% RH for 2 h. Finally, the dough was steamed for 20 min in a steamer. The controls

120

were prepared using the same procedures but were not inoculated with S. cerevisiae strains.

121

2.8. Texture analysis of the steamed bread

122

The textural properties of the steamed bread were investigated using a TA-XT2i Texture

123

Analyzer (Stable Micro System, Ltd., Godalming, UK) with a Texture Profile Analysis (TPA)

6

124

mode (Caine et al., 2003). After cooling for 5 min, the samples were uniformly sliced with a

125

thickness of 10 mm and cut into cylindrical slices (35 mm diameter) from the center of each loaf.

126

To measure the textural properties of the samples, a 100 mm diameter cylindrical probe was used

127

to compress each slice with 40% deformation at a speed of 1 mm/s. At least 6 replicates were

128

performed for each sample.

129

2.9. Volatile compounds of steamed bread

130

Volatile compounds of the steamed breads fermented by different S. cerevisiae strains were

131

determined according to Liu et al. (2018). Solid phase microextration (SPME) was used for the

132

extraction of the volatile compounds and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was

133

used for the separation and identification. The flavor extraction and subsequent injection processes

134

were automatically performed using the MPS autosampler (Gerstel, Mülheim, Germany). The

135

fiber 75 µm Carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (CAR/PDMS; Supelco, Bellefonte, PA) was

136

employed for the extraction of volatile compounds at 60 °C for 30 min and then inserted into the

137

injection port of the GC (7890B; Agilent Technologies), equipped with a DB-WAX capillary

138

column (J&W Scientific, 30 m long × 0.25 mm internal diameter, 0.25 µm film thickness), to

139

desorb the extracted volatiles at 250 °C for 4 min in splitless mode. The column temperature was

140

set at 40 °C for 2 min, increased to 230 °C at a rate of 5 °C/min. The carrier gas was helium with a

141

flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The GC was coupled to an MS detector (5977A; Agilent Technologies)

142

used in scan mode (35 to 500 m/z) with an electronic impact of 70 eV. The identification of

143

volatile compounds was carried out by comparison of the mass spectral data obtained with those

7

144

in a commercial database (NIST 11). The peak area of each volatile compound was integrated by

145

selecting a specific ion as described by Di Cagno et al. (2014).

146

2.10. Statistical analysis

147

Data from yeast enumeration, leavening ability and glucose fermentation were subjected to

148

one-way ANOVA analysis and were expressed as mean values ± standard deviations and the

149

multiple comparisons was performed using Tukey’s test (SPSS Statistics). Principal components

150

analysis (PCA) was performed using the software XLSTAT (version 2014.5.03) to compare the

151

steamed breads fermented with different S. cerevisiae strains based on their volatile profiles.

152

3. Results and discussion

153

3.1. Isolation of S. cerevisiae from Chinese sourdoughs

154

The results of yeast enumeration of the sourdoughs were given in Table 1. Cell density of

155

yeasts varied from 5.63 ± 0.02 (Xj) to 8.46 ± 0.01 (Pl) log cfu/g, and the median value was 7.08

156

log cfu/g. Similar results can be found in the previous studies performed by Lhomme et al. (2015)

157

and Minervini et al. (2012). Noticeably, S. cerevisiae was not found in the sourdough sample Ts.

158

According to the colony morphology, a total of 178 presumptive S. cerevisiae strains were

159

subjected to 26S rRNA sequencing analysis. 150 of the 178 strains exhibited ≥98% identity with

160

S. cerevisiae. Thus, 76.9% of the total strains isolated from the sourdough samples in this study

161

were S. cerevisiae (Table 1), illustrating the predominance of this species in Chinese traditional

162

sourdough, in accordance with previous studies (Valmorri et al., 2010; Zhang, Sadiq, et al., 2015).

163

3.2. Genotypic characterization by RAPD analysis

8

164

RAPD fingerprinting is a simple, rapid and sensitive technique and it has been widely used to

165

differentiate strains of yeast species (Bogusławska-Wąs et al., 2007; Di Cagno et al., 2014;

166

El-Fiky et al., 2012; Pfliegler et al., 2014). In order to increase the typing efficiency and

167

discriminatory power, RAPD patterns generated with M13 and MV1 primers individually were

168

integrated into a unique clustering profile as shown in Fig. 1. Based on the similarity level of 75%,

169

at which level isolates in different types differed by no less than three bands, the 150 S. cerevisiae

170

isolates from Chinese traditional sourdoughs were grouped into 5 clusters. Cluster 3 was the most

171

represented cluster with 116 strains isolated from all sourdough samples except Zj, accounting for

172

77.3% of total isolates, while cluster 5 included all the S. cerevisiae strains isolated from

173

sourdough Zj. Meanwhile, isolates from the same sourdough could be divided into different

174

clusters. For instance, strains isolated from sourdough Sx, Ah, Xj, Wf and Gm were separately

175

divided into at least two clusters. Particularly, strains from sourdough Xj, allocated into four

176

clusters, showed the most diversity. The genetic characterization of this study showed the

177

intraspecific variability of S. cerevisiae isolates from traditional sourdoughs, in accordance with

178

the finding of De Vuyst et al. (2016). Regarding this observation, the technological factors, the

179

manufacturing environment as well as geographical origins may explain the genotypic diversity of

180

these populations (Legras et al., 2007; Tapsoba et al., 2015), but it should be confirmed in further

181

studies through a much wider sampling.

182

3.3 Leavening ability and glucose fermentation

183

In order to describe the fermentative properties, a total of 22 isolates (Table 2) were selected

184

on the basis of the genotypic differentiation by RAPD analysis. Leavening ability is one of the

9

185

properties required for the commercial applications of yeast. A high leavening ability of S.

186

cerevisiae strains is apparently economically beneficial for bread producers. S. cerevisiae use

187

alcoholic fermentation to convert sugar into ethanol, carbon dioxide and glycerol. Carbon dioxide

188

causes the leavening of the dough. As shown in Table 3, the CO2 production of the selected strains

189

varied in an extensive range from 28.33 ± 4.04 mL (Wf4) to 220.67 ± 2.81 mL (Sx5), indicating

190

significant differences in the leavening abilities of these S. cerevisiae strains. Sx5, Ah1, Gs10 and

191

Hb3 were the strains possessing the highest leavening ability (220.67 ± 2.81, 217.33 ± 7.06,

192

211.80 ± 2.46 and 211.70 ± 4.19 mL CO2, respectively). S. cerevisiae ferment the flour

193

carbohydrates present in the dough to carbon dioxide and ethanol through glycolysis and glucose

194

is the preferentially utilized sugar (Heitmann et al., 2016). The glucose fermentation

195

characteristics of the 22 S. cerevisiae strains were also measured (Table 3). Interestingly, not all

196

strains with high leavening ability correlated with high ability of glucose utilization. For instance,

197

strain Xj7 and Gs6 produced more amount of CO2 than other strains, yet they showed an inferior

198

ability in glucose fermentation. It seems that some other factors apart from the ability of glucose

199

fermentation could affect the leavening ability of S. cerevisiae strains. Although S. cerevisiae

200

mainly ferments glucose in the beginning of fermentation, it also uses maltose and fructose as

201

carbohydrate sources for metabolism in later stages (Gabriela and Daniela, 2010). Moreover, the

202

leavening ability of S. cerevisiae has been proven to be influenced not only by glycolytic activity,

203

but also by sucrase activity and osmotolerance (Tokashiki et al., 2011). The mode of regulation of

204

maltose might affect its leavening ability as well (Birch et al., 2013; Zhang, Bai, et al., 2015).

205

Hence, the difference of these factors among S. cerevisiae strains might lead to the variations in

10

206

leavening ability. However, the underlying mechanism that can explain the variation in leavening

207

ability needs further investigation.

208

According to the results in this study, no obvious relationship could be found between

209

genetic typing by the two primers and the abilities of leavening and glucose fermentation. Strains

210

belonging to the same cluster based on RAPD analysis differed in the leavening and glucose

211

fermentation abilities, such as Gm4 and Xj7. On the other hand, some strains divided into

212

different clusters had similar abilities of leavening and glucose fermentation, such as Sx5 and Ah1.

213

Therefore, it indicated that the genetic diversity delineated by RAPD in this study may not reflect

214

the heterogeneity of the glycolytic pathway genes or maltose degradation operon, which was in

215

according to the previous study of De Angelis et al. (2007).

216

3.4 Textural properties of steamed bread

217

Texture of steamed bread is an important organoleptic property affecting consumer’s

218

acceptability (Arendt et al., 2007). The hardness, gumminess, chewiness, springiness,

219

cohesiveness, and resilience of steamed bread crumb fermented by different S. cerevisiae strains

220

were obtained from texture profile analysis (TPA). Relationships between textural properties and

221

S. cerevisiae strains were analyzed by PCA (Fig. 2). The first two components of the PCA

222

explained 82.81% of the total variance (58.78% and 24.03%, respectively). As shown in Fig. 2, all

223

samples fermented with S. cerevisiae strains were separated considerably from the blank,

224

indicating that S. cerevisiae fermentation had a significant effect on textural properties (especially

225

hardness, chewiness and gumminess) of steamed bread. In addition, the effect seemed to vary

226

among different strains, for most of the samples fermented with different S. cerevisiae strains

11

227

were separated from each other on the PCA map, including the strains belonged to the same

228

cluster by RAPD analysis such as Gs6 and Xj4, Gm4 and Xj7 and Wf4 and Hb11. During dough

229

fermentation, CO2 is produced by yeast through glycolysis route and is entrapped in the gluten

230

matrix of dough generating numerous gas cells, which leads to a lower extensibility and a higher

231

specific volume of steamed bread (Heitmann et al., 2016; Verheyen et al., 2014). Apart from

232

leavening dough, yeast also helps to develop and strengthen the gluten network. Glutathione,

233

which could be released by some nonviable yeast cells as a stress response (Penninckx, 2002;

234

Verheyen et al., 2015), modifies the viscoelastic gluten network of dough by increasing the rate of

235

thiol-disulfide interchange reactions because of its strong reducing effect (Verheyen et al., 2015).

236

Moreover, yeast is able to produce glycerol and pyruvic acid in the early stage of fermentation

237

(Heitmann et al., 2016), which also has a positive effect on the texture of steamed bread (Corsetti

238

et al., 2000). Therefore, the variety of leavening abilities and the production of glutathione,

239

glycerol and pyruvic acid in the yeasts might result in the different texture characteristics of the

240

steamed breads fermented with the 22 S. cerevisiae strains in this study.

241

3.5 Volatile compounds profiles

242

In this study, a total of 19 volatile compounds were identified in the crumb of steamed breads

243

fermented with the 22 S. cerevisiae strains, including 9 alcohols, 5 aldehydes, 2 ketones, 1 acid, 1

244

ester and 1 furan. Compounds that have a score < 90 when compared with NIST 11 database were

245

discarded. A PCA was performed to provide an overview of the differences in flavor of the

246

steamed bread samples (Fig. 3). The first two principal components (PCs) were extracted with a

247

cumulative explained variance of 61.32%. As shown in Fig. 3, the samples were divided into five

12

248

groups. The samples fermented with Ah1 and Hb3 were grouped together and featured a relatively

249

high content of ethanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, phenylethyl alcohol, acetoin,

250

2,3-pentanedione and octanoic acid ethyl ester. Ethanol was found to be a predominant compound

251

in steamed bread (Kim et al., 2009). It has been reported that 95% of fermentable glucides present

252

in flour can be transformed into ethanol and carbon dioxide by S. cerevisiae through glycolysis

253

route (Pico et al., 2015). 3-methyl-1-butanol, the concentration of which was highest in the

254

steamed bread fermented with strain Hb3, was one of the most important aroma active compounds

255

in bread (Aponte et al., 2014) with a balsamic or alcoholic odor (Lee and Noble, 2003). This

256

compound was formed via the Ehrlich pathway by conversion of leucine present in flour

257

(Hazelwood et al., 2008). Likewise, phenylethyl alcohol, another typical Ehrlich volatile

258

compound, was derived from phenylalanine (Pico et al., 2015) and also correlates positively with

259

the aroma of bread. The content of octanoic acid ethyl ester was highest in the samples fermented

260

with Hb3. Generally, esters are supposed to be important flavor ingredients since they are often

261

characterized as having a fruity and pleasant aroma (Lee and Noble, 2003).

262

The samples fermented with the strains Ah13, Hr1, Xj4, Pl2, Xj7, Xj3, Hb11 and Pl6 were

263

grouped together and possessed a relatively high amount of 2-pentyl-furan, heptanal,

264

2-butoxy-ethanol,

265

2-nonen-1-ol. Among these compounds, nonanal and 2-pentyl-furan correlate positively with the

266

aroma of steamed bread like, while benzaldehyde and 1-octen-3-ol correlate negatively (Pico et al.,

267

2015). In addition, heptanal, 1-hexanol, nonanal and 1-octen-3-ol were the compounds deriving

268

from lipid oxidation (Pico et al., 2015). Generally, no significant differences of the aroma

1-octen-3-ol,

1-hexanol,

nonanal, benzaldehyde,

13

hexanoic acid

and

269

compounds originating from lipid oxidation could be found between bread samples (Birch et al.,

270

2013). However, in our study, the concentrations of these compounds were significantly different

271

between the samples (Fig. 3). This could be explained by that S. cerevisiae utilizes the oxygen

272

available during kneading to grow (Pico et al., 2015) and the diversity of their growth abilities

273

may affect the access of oxygen to lipoxygenase enzymes in generating these compounds.

274

As shown in Fig. 3, the volatile profiles of the samples fermented by S. cerevisiae strains

275

were different in comparison with the control dough and control steamed bread. Actually, flavor

276

profile of steamed bread is more complex than that of dough, since it could be influenced by

277

thermal processing (Paterson and Piggott, 2006). Therefore, some compounds which appeared

278

after steaming, such as heptanal, 2-pentyl-furan, nonanal, 2-(E)-octenal, 2-nonen-1-ol and

279

benzaldehyde (Fig. 3), may lead to the differentiation of the aroma profiles between dough and

280

steamed bread. In addition, the steaming process could also influence the concentration of some

281

volatile compounds and result in the difference of the two samples.

282

According to the results, it seems that the differences in aroma profiles of steamed bread

283

fermented with S. cerevisiae strains have no obvious correlation with the genotypic variations

284

showed by RAPD based on the two primers. Although strains Ah13, Hr1, Xj4 and Pl2, which

285

were grouped together based on aroma profiles of steamed bread, belonged to the same cluster by

286

RAPD analysis, other strains sharing a similar volatile profile were classified into different types

287

by RAPD, like Xj7, Xj3 and Pl6 (Table 2 and Fig. 3). On the other hand, the aroma profiles of

288

steamed bread fermented with strains of the same RAPD types could be quite different, such as

289

Hb3, Ah13 and Gs6 from the cluster 3. The differences in the aroma profile between the breads

14

290

have been reported to be due to the differences in the gene-regulating mechanisms and

291

biosynthetic pathways of aroma compound formation (Birch et al., 2013). Thus, to obtain a better

292

correlation between genotypic characterization and aroma profile, analysis of the relevant gene

293

regions of the S. cerevisiae genome, such as the glycolysis route and Ehrlich pathway, could be

294

promising in further studies.

295

4. Conclusions

296

The use of RAPD analysis was helpful in discriminating S. cerevisiae strains isolated from

297

the Chinese traditional sourdoughs. Differentiation was found in the leavening and glucose

298

fermentation abilities among S. cerevisiae strains, as well as the texture and volatiles of the

299

steamed bread fermented with the S. cerevisiae strains. The combined analyses of fermentative

300

traits are desirable for higher diversity of S. cerevisiae strains and starter culture selection. In this

301

study, no obvious relationship could be found between genetic diversity and fermentative

302

properties of S. cerevisiae strains, indicating the molecular characterization obtained by RAPD

303

analysis might not reflect the heterogeneity of some specific regions of the genome which are

304

more correlated with phenotypic traits, such as glycolysis route and Ehrlich pathway.
