Lactobacillus reuteri harbours alternative enzymes for sucrose metabolism, sucrose phosphorylase, fructansucrases, and glucansucrases. Sucrose phosphorylase and fructansucrases additionally contribute to raffinose metabolism. Glucansucrases and fructansucrases produce exopolysaccharides as...

Sclerotinia stem rot caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum affects canola production worldwide. Emerging evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in plants, in response to both abiotic and biotic stress. So far, identification of...

Back-slopping of fermentation cultures in food fermentations can ensure stability of fermentation microbiota at the species or even at the strain level over extended periods of time. In contrast to the fermentation organisms in spontaneous food fermentations, which are derived from...

Treatment with the probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus reuteri has been shown to prevent dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in rats. This is partly due to reduced P-selectin-dependent leukocyte- and platelet-endothelial cell interactions, however, the mechanism behind this protective...

Sourdough is used in production of (steamed) bread as leavening agent (type I sourdoughs) or as baking improver to enhance flavour, texture, and shelf life of bread (type II sourdoughs). The long-term propagation of sourdoughs eliminates dispersal limitation and consistently leads to sourdough...

Commercial isomalto‐oligosaccharides (IMO) are functional food ingredients. They are composed of α(1→6)‐ and α(1→4)‐linked oligosaccharides. IMO are partially indigestible, and dietary IMO stimulate beneficial members of intestinal microbiota, including lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. However,...

Oligosaccharides, compounds that are composed of 2–10 monosaccharide residues, are major carbohydrate sources in habitats populated by lactobacilli. Moreover, oligosaccharide metabolism is essential for ecological fitness of lactobacilli. Disaccharide metabolism by lactobacilli is well...

This work aimed to study the phenolic acid metabolism of sourdough lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in laboratory media, and in sourdough fermentation with single cultures and in co-fermentations. Lactobacilli were selected from isolates obtained from 35 sourdough samples. Isolates (114 strains) were...

The choice of the cereal substrate determines sourdough microbiota, however, the substrate-associated ecological factors for this phenomenon have not been elucidated. This study investigated the competitiveness of Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis LTH 2590, a wheat sourdough isolate, and four...

This study aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role of miRNAs in the development of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) during the early life of dairy calves. Rumen and small intestinal (mid-jejunum and ileum) tissue samples were collected from newborn (30 min after birth; n = 3), 7-day-old...
