Comparative Genomics Unveils the Habitat Adaptation and Metabolic Profiles of Clostridium in an Artificial Ecosystem for Liquor Production

ABSTRACT Clostridium inhabiting pit mud (PM) is one of the important bacterial populations for synthesizing flavor compounds of Chinese strong-flavor baijiu. The long-term cereal fermentation with sorghum as the main raw material creates an environment rich in starch, ethanol, and organic acids (mai...
