Detection of Viable and Total Bacterial Community in the Pit Mud of Chinese Strong-Flavor Liquor Using Propidium Monoazide Combined With Quantitative PCR and 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing

Microbiota in the pit mud (PM) plays a crucial role in the production of Chinese strong-flavor liquor (CSFL), the most popular distilled liquor in China. However, previous studies used total microbes, instead of viable ones, for the characterization of the microbial community in this environment. In...
