Bacterial and fungal community of kefir grains and water kefir samples (PRJCA042831)
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the bacterial and fungal microbiota in four water kefir grain (WKG) samples of different geographical origins and their corresponding fermented beverages (WK), in order to understand microbial dynamics during fermentation. The findings reveal marked shifts in community composition and diversity, underscoring the selective and dynamic nature of the water kefir ecosystem.
