DESCRIPTION OF LIQUORILACTOBACILLUS SATSUMENSIS COMB. NOV.

Liquorilactobacillus satsumensis (sat.su.men′ sis. N.L. masc. adj. satsumensis , pertaining to Satsuma, old name for the southern part of Kyushu in Japan, from where the type strain was isolated).

Basonym: Lactobacillus satsumensis Endo and Okada 2005 , 85 VP

L. satsumensis cells are motile rods with peritrichous flagella. Growth is observed in MRS broth at pH 3.5 containing 5 % (w/v) NaCl but not with 10 % (v/v) ethanol. Dextran is formed from sucrose [ 204]. The genome size of the type strain is 2.65 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 39.9.

Isolated from mashes of shochu, a traditional Japanese distilled spirit made from fermented rice and other starchy materials.

The type strain is DSM 16230 T = JCM 12392 T = NRIC 0604 T .

Genome sequence accession number: AZFQ00000000.

16S rRNA gene accession number: AB154519 .
