In this study, high-throughput sequencing and metabolomics analysis were conducted to analyze the microbial and metabolites of dry-cured Sanchuan ham, Laowo ham, Nuodeng ham, and Heqing ham that have fermented for two years produced from western Yunnan China. Results showed that at the genus level, the dominant bacteria in the four types of ham were Halomonas and Staphylococcus , while the dominant fungi were Aspergillus and Yamadazyma . A total 422 different metabolites were identified in four types of ham, mainly amino acids, peptides, fatty acids, and their structural analogs, which were involved in pantothenate and coenzyme A biosynthesis, caffeine, and tyrosine metabolism...
