===Lactic Acid Bacteria===
''Lactobacillus plantarum'' has been found to produce 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (3SH) from precursors in wine (3SH-S-cys and 3SH-S-cysgly) at a more efficient rate than wine yeast. 3SH is a volatile thiol that has a grapefruit-like flavor and aroma and is considered to be an important flavor component of some wines <ref>[http://sci-hub.hk/https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0308814618305594 Impact of Lactobacillus plantarum on thiol precursor biotransformation leading to production of 3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol.

The pH of the wine can have an impact on which lactic acid bacteria species will grow. Below a pH of 3.5, ''O. oeni'' is the most dominant LAB species. ''Lactobacillus'' and ''Pediococcus'' are more common in wines above a pH of 3.5, with ''Pediococcus'' being most common in wines with a pH between 3.8 and 4.0, although ''Pediococcus'' has also been found in wines with a pH as low as 3.2. They are further inhibited by high ethanol, SO<sub>2</sub>, and high-temperature storage <ref name="Wade_2018">[https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ajgw.12366 Role of Pediococcus in winemaking.
