Fermentation ability and alcohol production ability are important quality indicators of Chinese liquor Daqu, reflecting microbial growth and metabolic capacity and ethanol production capacity of Daqu microbiota, respectively. However, information on the microbial community related to the fermentation ability and alcohol production ability is unclear. In this study, fermentation functional microbiota (FFM) and alcohol functional microbiota (AFM) were obtained by correlating fermentation ability and alcohol production ability with Daqu microbiota. FFM and AFM consisted of 50 and 49 genera, respectively, which were basically the same at the phylum level but differed at the genus level. Correlation analysis showed that FFM and AFM were mainly affected by moisture, acidity, and humidity in the early stage of Daqu fermentation, and oxygen content was a critical factor for microbial succession in the middle stage of fermentation. FFM and AFM had commensal or synergistic interactions with multiple microbes. Function predictions indicated that fermentation functional bacterial microbiota was active in product synthesis and transport-related metabolic functions, and alcohol functional bacterial microbiota was very active in raw material utilization and its own metabolic synthesis. This study reveals the structural characteristics and formation mechanism of FFM and AFM, which is important for control of Daqu quality.
