Unraveling the mycobiota of Daqu at the species level using metabarcoding of full-length ITS sequences
Daqu, the starter used in Baijiu making process, is produced by spontaneous solid-state fermentation and contains numerous microbes and enzymes, significantly influencing the yield and flavour Posi-Clear RP Parts profile of Baijiu.In this study, we employed a full-length ITS metabarcoding approach using the PacBio sequencing technology to investiga
