BACKGROUND: Identification of endophytic yeasts inhabiting the internal roots of the Mankyua chejuense tree requires techniques involving biotechnology. There is a need for a culture-based method to isolate and identify yeast strains associated with M. chejuense.METHODS AND RESULTS: We spread homogenized M. chejuense root samples onto glucose-peptone- yeast agar containing antibiotics, Triton X-100, and L-sorbose. A total of 152 yeast isolates were obtained and identified via phylogenetic analysis based on ITS gene sequencing. The results revealed that the root-associated yeast species included the genera Cyberlindnera (140 isolates), Candida (11 isolates), and Kluyveromyces (one isolate). Additionally, three yeast isolates showed high bioethanol production.CONCLUSION: We identified the specific yeast community associated with M. chejuense roots. These yeast isolates may have industrial applications as bioethanol producers. Our findings revealed that Cyberlindnera isolates included C. suaverolens and C. satumus, while Kluyveromyces isolates showed high bioethanol production.

BACKGROUND: Yeasts associated with fleabane flowers were identified using isolation methods previously applied in yeast biotechnology. A culture-based approach was required for isolation of many yeast strains associated with fleabane. METHODS AND RESULTS: We spread homogenized fleabane flowers onto GPY medium containing chloramphenicol, streptomycin, Triton X-100, and L-sorbose. We isolated 79 yeast strains from the flowers of wild fleabane, and identified the yeasts via phylogenetic analysis of isolates from agar plates. The yeast species included 39 isolates of Aureobasidium pullulans, 17 of the genus Candida, 14 of the genus Rhodosporidium, 6 of the genus Cryptococcus, and 3 of the genus Rhodotorula. CONCLUSION: Yeast isolates associated with fleabane flowers included A. pullulans (39 isolates) and other yeast species (40 isolates). Such yeast isolates may have biotechnological potential.

Feasibility of microbial culture media using by-product of salt fermented kanary was investigated. Gram negative strain, Escherichia coli, and Gram positive strain, Bacillus subtilis, and bioluminescent Photobacterium Phosphoreum were incubated with kanary by-Product media (KB media). Compared with LB media, KB media had enough carbon source, but lacked nitrogen source and growth factor. When 0.5% of peptone as a nitrogen source and 0.3% of yeast extract as nitrogen and growth factor source were fortified in KB media, the cell population rate was similar to LB media. Also, when 0.5% of yeast extract was fortified to KB media, it showed the same result as in LB media. The price of KB media with fortification of 0.5% peptone and 0.3% yeast extract, and 0.5% of yeast extract is only 46 and 19% of that of LB media, respectively. These results showed that kanary by-Product could be a good and cheaper bacterial culture media if small amount of nitrogen source and growth factor were added.

Indigenous yeasts in Korea have been actively studied since 1910 in light of various fields, including environment, food fermentation, brewing, and medicine. However, a complete list of indigenous yeast species has not been addressed or reported. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the literature including yeast isolation from Korean materials and the strains preserved at culture collections was performed. The results of this study indicate the following: i) there are 128 genera and 681 species (including 26 variants) of yeast reported in Korea, ii) the reported species were trimmed into 142 genera and 500 species (including 9 variants), iii) among which only 166 species were registered in the National Species List of Korea (2020). Therefore, follow-up studies are required to register more indigenous yeast species in the National Species List of Korea.

Studies on the optimum conditions of acid hydrolysis of sweet potato starch cake and its utilization on the production of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a carbon source were conducted and the results showed as follows; 1.The highest hydrolysis rate, 62.7 ％ of the reducing sugar based on the weight of the dry matter, was obtained when the starch cake was hydrolyzed with 1.0％ of hydrochloric acid at 2.0 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 30 minutes. 2. But the yeast grew most favorably on the hydrolyzate obtained by treating the starch cake with 0.5％ of hydrochloric acid at 2.0 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 10 minutes. Reducing sugar content of hydrolyzate was 51.4％. 3. The optimum pH of the culture medium was 7.0, Cell growth reached to the maximum at 36 hours of cultivation time. 4. According to the vitamin requirement tests, Ca-pantothenate was found to be a promoting factor for the growth of the yeast cells. 5.

An ethanolic fermentation process was developed for preparing Doenjang with high ethanol. Higher and efficient viable cell production of salt-tolerant ethanolic yeast is a prerequisite for the successful commercial-scale process of ethanol production during Doenjang fermentation. Culture conditions of salt-tolerant yeast, S. cerevisiae KFCC 10823, was studied in terms of the effect of several environmental and nutritional factors. Viable cell numbers were the highest in a medium containing the following components per liter of water: soysauce, 300ml; dextrose, 50 g; beef extract, 5 g; yeast extract, 5 g; $KH_2PO_4$, 5 g; NaCl, 50 g. The optimal culture conditions of S. cerevisiae KFCC 10823 were pH 5.5, $25^{\circ}C$, 200 rpm and 0.5 vvm. Yeast viability during batch fermentation was gradually decreased to a level less than $90{\%}$ after 35 hours. The maximum cell number was $2.2{\times}10_7$ cells/ml at the optimal condition. Doenjang prepared with ethanolic yeast was ripened after 45 days at $30^{\circ}C$. This Doenjang contains 470 mg% of amino nitrogen and 2.5% ethanol. The shelf-life at $30^{\circ}C$ was theoretically estimated as 444 days.

IAA biosynthetic pathways in a basidiomycetous yeast, Rhodosporidiobolus fluvialis DMKU-CP293, were investigated. The yeast strain showed tryptophan (Trp)-dependent IAA biosynthesis when grown in tryptophan supplemented mineral salt medium. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to further identify the pathway intermediates of Trpdependent IAA biosynthesis. The results indicated that the main intermediates produced by R. fluvialis DMKU-CP293 were tryptamine (TAM), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and tryptophol (TOL), whereas indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) was not found. However, supplementation of IPA to the culture medium resulted in IAA peak detection by high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of the culture supernatant. Key enzymes of three IAA biosynthetic routes, i.e., IPA, IAM and TAM were investigated to clarify the IAA biosynthetic pathways of R. fluvialis DMKU-CP293. Results indicated that the activities of tryptophan aminotransferase, tryptophan 2-monooxygenase, and tryptophan decarboxylase were observed in cell crude extract. Overall results suggested that IAA biosynthetic in this yeast strain mainly occurred via the IPA route. Nevertheless, IAM and TAM pathway might be involved in R. fluvialis DMKU-CP293.
