DESCRIPTION OF LENTILACTOBACILLUS BUCHNERI COMB. NOV.

Lentilactobacillus buchneri (buch’ne.ri. N.L. gen. n. buchneri of Buchner, referring to the German microbiologist Buchner).

Basonym: Lactobacillus buchneri ( Bacillus buchneri [sic] Henneberg 1903, 163) Bergey et al. 1923, 251 (Approved Lists)

Biochemical characteristics of L. buchneri were described as being similar to L. brevis [ 11, 231] but L. buchneri differs with regards to the production of 1,2 propanediol from lactate. The genome size of the type strain is 2.45 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 44.4.

Isolated from pressed yeast, milk, cheese, fermenting plant material and the human mouth. L. buchneri is used commercially as silage inoculant.

The type strain is ATCC 4005 T = CCUG 21532 T = CIP 103023 T = DSM 20057 T = JCM 1115 T = LMG 6892 T = NCAIM B.01145 T = NRRL B-1837 T = VKM B-1599 T.

Genome sequence accession number: AZDM00000000.
