Discussion

Metabarcoding analysis reveals unique yeast profiles from lychee peels, suggesting their potential as probiotics.

Lychee peels demonstrated the highest diversity of yeast genera, showing significant probiotic potential.
Probiotic yeasts isolated from lychee peels had a notable activity for health benefits, with 53.33% exhibiting probiotic traits.
This study utilized metabarcoding and cultural methods to isolate yeasts from diverse sources, including rice wine and palm wine.
Findings have implications for the targeted selection of yeasts with specific health-promoting attributes.

Kanyakam et al. (2025) studied this question.
