To reveal the potential of core bacterial and fungal communities for aroma formation in the fermentation of chili pepper, shifts in microbial diversity and volatile metabolites during the 32-day fermentation process were measured using high-throughput sequencing and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Rosenbergiella and Staphylococcus were the dominant bacterial genera, where Hyphopichia and Kodamaea were the most abundant fungi, in fermented chili pepper. Sixteen differential volatile metabolites were detected in fermented and unfermented samples using differential metabolomics analysis. Nine strains from the genera Hyphopichia, Staphylococcus, Rosenbergiella, and Bacillus were isolated from fermented chili pepper. The correlation of dominant microorganisms with key odorants by Spearman correlation and two-way orthogonal partial least squares analysis indicated that Hyphopichia exhibited a significant positive correlation with the formation of 11 key odorants. These findings enhance our understanding of the core functional bacterial and fungal genera involved in the production of desirable flavors in fermented chili pepper.
