Description

DESCRIPTION OF AMYLOLACTOBACILLUS AMYLOPHILUS COMB. NOV.

Amylolactobacillus amylophilus (a.my.lo’phi.lus. Gr. neut. n. amylon starch; Gr. masc. adj. philos loving; N.L. masc. adj. amylophilus starch-loving).

Basonym: Lactobacillus amylophilus Nakamura and Crowell 1981, 216 VP (Effective publication: Nakamura and Crowell 1979, 539).

A. amylophilus strains ferment starch to L(+)-lactic acid, they also metabolise fructose, galactose, glucose, mannose and maltose [111]. The genome size is 1.56 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 43.6 [111].

Isolated from swine waste-corn fermentation, corn-starch processing industrial wastes and kocho (Ensete ventricosum) bread.

The type strain is ATCC 49845 T = LMG 6900 T = DSM 20533 T = CCUG 30137 T = CIP 102988 T = IFO (now NBRC) 15881 T = JCM 1125 T = NCAIM B.01457 T = NRRL B-4437 T = NRRL B-4476 T.

Genome sequence accession number: AYYS00000000.

16S rRNA gene accession number: M58806.
