Lactobacillus paucivorans sp. nov., isolated from a brewery environment Ehrmann, Matthias A. and Preissler, Patrick and Danne, Markus and Vogel, Rudi F.,, 60, 2353-2357 (2010), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.018077-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A Gram-stain-positive, catalase-negative and rod-shaped bacterium was isolated from a brewery environment. Its phylogenetic affiliation was determined by using 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. It was found that strain TMW 1.1424T belongs to the genus Lactobacillus, with the three nearest neighbours Lactobacillus parabrevis LMG 11984T (97 %), Lactobacillus brevis DSM 20054T (95.9 %) and Lactobacillus hammesii DSM 16381T (96.2 %). Comparative sequencing of additional phylogenetic marker genes tuf and pheS confirmed the 16S rRNA gene sequence tree topology. The DNA G+C content of strain TMW 1.1424T is 46.6 mol%. Genomic DNA–DNA relatedness values with L. brevis DSM 20054T, L. parabrevis LMG 11984T and L. hammesii DSM 16381T do not exceed 52.8 %, revealing that the novel isolate represents a separate genomic species. The strain can be distinguished from other related species of the genus Lactobacillus by physiological and biochemical tests. Based on biochemical, physiological and phylogenetic data, it is proposed that the new isolate be classified as a novel species of the genus Lactobacillus, Lactobacillus paucivorans sp. nov. The type strain is TMW 1.1424T (=DSM 22467T =LMG 25291T)., language=, type=
