To clarify the discrepancy in characteristic flavor and bacteria composition of 10 fresh fermented rice noodles from southern China, the volatile and bacteria composition were determined by headspace-gas chromatography ion mobility spectrometry and 16SrRNA sequencing methods. The potential relationship between volatile compounds and bacterial composition has also been further revealed using spearman's correlation analysis. The contents of proximate composition, cooking properties and texture properties of 10 fresh fermented rice noodles exhibited significant different among them (p ＜ 0.05). The flavor analysis showed that a total of 54 compounds were detected. 1-Octen-one, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, 3-methylbutanal, n-nonanal, hexanal, amyl acetate, ethanol and 2-pentyl furan were the key volatiles among them. The bacterial analysis showed that Leuconostoc and Lactococcus were the core bacteria at the genu level of all samples. Amyl acetate, 2-butanone and methyl-2-methylpropanoate were positively related to Lactococcus while ethanol was negatively correlated with Lactococcus. And Leuconostoc was positively related to 3-methylbutanal and acetone, while was negatively correlated with hexanal. Results indicated that key volatiles and textural properties of different fresh fermented rice noodle samples were associated with bacterial composition.
