DESCRIPTION OF PARALACTOBACILLUS SELANGORENSIS COMB. NOV.

Paralactobacillus selangoresis (se.lan.gor.en’sis. N.L. masc. adj. selangorensis , belonging to the province of Selangor, Malaysia); Leisner et al. 2000, Haakensen et al. 2011, 2982 VP

Cells are able to grow on acetate agar and can lower the pH to below 4.15 in LA broth [ 179]. No growth occurs with 6.5 % NaCl [ 177]. The genome size of the type strain is 2.09 Mbp; the mol% G+C content of DNA is 46.

The species was isolated from a Malaysian food ingredient called chili bo.
