Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (L. lactis subsp. lactis) is a commonly used starter cultures in fermented dairy products, contributing distinct flavor and texture characteristics with high application value. However, the strains from different isolates have different contributions to milk fermentation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the influence of L. lactis subsp. lactis isolated from various sources on the volatile metabolites present in fermented milk. In this study, L. lactis subsp. lactis from different isolation sources (yogurt, koumiss and goat yogurt) was utilized as a starter culture for fermentation. The volatile metabolites of fermented milk were subsequently analyzed by headspace solid phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrography (HS-SPME-GC-MS). The results indicated significant differences in the structure and abundance of volatile metabolites in fermented milk produced with different isolates (R2Y = 0.96, Q2 = 0.88). Notably, the strains isolated from goat yogurt appeared to enhance the accumulation of ketones (goat yogurt vs yogurt milk: 50 %; goat yogur vs koumiss: 27.3 %)and aldehydes (goat yogurt vs yogurt milk: 21.4 %; goat yogurt vs koumiss: 54.5 %) in fermented milk than strains isolated from koumiss and yogurt milk. It significantly promoted the production of 8 flavor substances (1 substance with OAV ≥ 1 and 6 substances with OAV > 0.1) and enhanced the biosynthesis of valine, leucine, and isoleucine. This study provides valuable insights for the application of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis isolated from different sources in fermented dairy production and screening of potential starter cultures.
