Williopsis satumus

Yeast strains belonging to the species of Candida fahianii, Candida guilliermondii, Candida tropicalis, Deharyomyces hansenii, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulopsis Candida CandidaJumata), and Williopsis satumus also exhibit the nitrile hydratase/ amidase system able to use the series of aliphatic mono- and dinitriles as well as their matching amides as the sole N-source [20]. 

Doujiang is fermented by naturally occurring or cultivated microorganisms (Kim, Lee, et al., 2010), including Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Bacillus megaterium, Lactobacillus fermentum and Lactobacillus plantarum, and yeasts such as Candida humilis, Kluyveromyces lactis, Williopsis satumus and Z. rouxii. In industry the natural fermentation can be simulated by using a mixed starter of Z. rouxii and L. plantarum these starter cultures obviously do not fully represent the microbial community in the traditional production (Zhao et al., 2009).
