Applications of Aureobasidium spp. resources: biomanufacturing and sustainable development

Abstract:

Aureobasidium spp. are a group of fungi with remarkable ecological adaptability and stress tolerance. They are ubiquitous in natural environments such as plants and can survive under extreme conditions. The genomes of Aureobasidium spp. show specific differentiation characteristics, and the strains have obviously advantage characteristics in fermentation. Aureobasidium spp. can utilize a broad spectrum of carbon sources and produce a rich variety of metabolites. Aureobasidium spp. and their metabolites have significant application potential in fields such as biomedicine, biocontrol, and food processing. This article introduces the distribution, classification, main metabolites, and multidisciplinary applications of Aureobasidium spp. In the future, with the advancement in multidisciplinary fields such as genome editing and intelligent biomanufacturing, Aureobasidium spp. are expected to play an important role in biomanufacturing and sustainable development industries.
