    Abstract:
    Microbial community and volatilome of brines were monitored during the spontaneous fermentations of Spanish-style and Natural-style green table olives from Manzanilla cultivar. Fermentation of olives in the Spanish style was carried out by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts, whereas halophilic Gram-negative bacteria and archaea, along with yeasts, drove the fermentation in the Natural style. Clear differences between the two olive fermentations regarding physicochemical and biochemical features were found. Lactobacillus, Pichia, and Saccharomyces were the dominant microbial communities in the Spanish style, whereas Allidiomarina, Halomonas, Saccharomyces, Pichia, and Nakazawaea predominated in the Natural style. Numerous qualitative and quantitative differences in individual volatiles between both fermentations were found. The final products mainly differed in total amounts of volatile acids and carbonyl compounds. In addition, in each olive style, strong positive correlations were found between the dominant microbial communities and various volatile compounds, some of them previously reported as aroma-active compounds in table olives. The findings from this study provide a better understanding of each fermentation process and may help the development of controlled fermentations using starter cultures of bacteria and/or yeasts for the production of high-quality green table olives from Manzanilla cultivar.
