DESCRIPTION OF LACTICASEIBACILLUS PARACASEI COMB. NOV.

Lacticaseibacillus paracasei (pa.ra.ca’se.i. Gr. prep. para resembling; N.L. gen. n. casei a species epithet; N.L. gen. n. paracasei resembling Lactobacillus casei ).

Basonym: Lactobacillus paracasei Collins et al. 1989 View in CoL , 107 VP Strains of this species including strains previously referred to as L. casei subsp. alactosus View in CoL , L. casei subsp. pseudoplantarum View in CoL and L. casei subsp. tolerans View in CoL were transferred from L. casei View in CoL [ 168]. Original characteristics of L. paracasei View in CoL strains are described in [ 168]. Cells have superoxide dismutase activity [ 47], are rods (0.8–1.0×2.0–4.0 µm), often with square ends, occurring singly or in chains. Growth is observed between 10 and 40 °C. Some strains grow at 5 and 45 °C. Two subspecies are validly published. The genome size of the type strain is 2.88 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 46.5.

Strains of this species have a nomadic lifestyle and were isolated from a variety of courses including the human oral cavity [ 169], fermented cereals, vegetables, meats, dairy products and in invertebrate hosts.

The type strain is DSM 5622 View Materials T = ATCC 25302 View Materials T = AS 1.2826 T = JCM 8130 View Materials T = LMG 13087 T .

Genome sequence accession number: AZGH00000000.

16S rRNA gene accession number of the type strain: D79212 View Materials . Two subspecies are recognized: Lacticaseibacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei subsp. tolerans .
