Résumé
Datasets describing the fungal species diversity, microbial density and acidity of French sourdoughs as well as the diversity of bread-making practices.The species diversity of 14 sourdoughs collected from bakeries located all over France was analyzed. Bakeries were chosen to represent diverse bakery practices and included bakers and farmer-bakers. Both non-culture-based (pyrosequencing of Internal Transcribed Spacer 1 amplicons) and culture-based methods were used.
The data were collected, analyzed, and reported within the following publication :
