Score plot (A) and loading plot (B) of first and second principal components after principal-component analysis based on volatile components that mainly (P < 0.05) differentiated the four sourdoughs propagated under firm and liquid conditions for 1 (I) and 28 (V) days. The ingredients and technological parameters used for daily sourdough backslopping are reported in Table 1.
