DESCRIPTION OF LATILACTOBACILLUS CURVATUS COMB. NOV.

Latilactobacillus curvatus (cur.va′ tus. L. masc. adj. curvatus curved).

Basonym: Lactobacillus curvatus (Bacterium curvatum Troili-Petersson 1903, 137) Abo-Elnaga and Kandler 1965; Troili-Petersson 1980 (Approved Lists); emend. Klein et al. 1996 Some L. curvatus strains are motile [ 184]; they occur in pairs, short chains, and frequently in horseshoe forms. Characteristics of the species are provided by [ 170, 180, 185]. The genome size of the type strain is 1.82 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 42.0.

Isolated from cow dung, fermented and vacuum-packaged refrigerated meat and fish products, dairy products such as milk and cheese, fermented plant products like sauerkraut, sourdough (including prepacked finished dough and pressed yeast), radish, pickles and kimchi, other plantderived materials like honey and from the environmental fermentation process of corn or grass silage [ 186].

The type strain is 1 T = LMG 9198 T = DSM 20019 T = LMG 13553 T = ATCC 25601 T = CCUG 30669 T = CIP 102992 T = IFO (now NBRC) 15884 T = JCM 1096 T = NRRL B-4562 T.

Genome sequence accession number: AZDL00000000.
