Lactobacillus kullabergensis grows at 15–50 °C; D(−)-lactate is produced as the endproduct from hexose fermentation. Acid isproduced from glucose, fructose, trehalose and gentiobiose, but notfrom ribose, galactose, mannose, maltose, lactose and sucrose [89]. The genome size is 2.12 Mbp and the mol% G+C content of DNA is 35.8.
