Abstract

A Gram-positive, endospore-forming, lactic acid bacterium was isolated from spoiled orange juice. The organism, strain QC81-06, grew microaerobically or anaerobically at 30–45 °C (optimum 35 °C) and pH 3.5–5.5 (optimum pH 4.5), and produced acid from various sugars. -Lactic acid was produced. It contained menaquinone-7 as the major isoprenoid quinone. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 47.5 mol%. The predominant cellular fatty acids of the strain were iso-C, anteiso-C and anteiso-C. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and gene (DNA gyrase B subunit gene) revealed that strain QC81-06 clustered with species but the strain was clearly distinct from other species with significant bootstrap values. The levels of 16S rRNA gene and gene sequence similarities between strain QC81-06 and the other strains of the cluster were 96.0–97.0 % and 75.1–77.2 %, respectively. On the basis of these results, strain QC81-06 should be classified as a novel species for which the name is proposed. The type strain is strain QC81-06 (=DSM 21265=JCM 15325).
