DESCRIPTIONOF COMPANILACTOBACILLUS ALIMENTARIUS COMB. NOV.

Companilactobacillus alimentarius (a.li.men.ta'ri.us. L. masc. adj. alimentarius related to food).

Basonym: Lactobacillus alimentarius (ex Reuter 1970) Reuter 1983a, 672 VP

Growth is observed between 15 and 37°C and with pentoses, hexoses and disaccharides as carbon sources [ 115]. The genome size is 2.34 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 35.4.

Isolated as spoilage organisms from marinated fish products, as fermentation organismsin fermented sausages, as spoilage organism in ready-to-eat meats. Astrain of the species had been usedas biopreservatives culture [ 116]. It occurs inassociation with Fructilactobacillus sanfranciscensis intype Isourdoughs [ 114] and was isolated in other plant fermentations.
