Microbial and Fungal Diversity of Cabrales Blue Cheese: 16S rRNA and ITS1 Sequencing Analysis
Analysis of microbial diversity in Cabrales cheese, a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) product, through 16S rRNA gene sequencing for bacterial communities and ITS1 intergenic region sequencing for fungal communities. This study aims to identify and characterize the microbial and fungal communities in Cabrales, a traditional blue cheese with PDO status, providing insights into the microorganisms that contribute to its unique flavor and aroma profiles
