DESCRIPTION OF LOIGOLACTOBACILLUS GEN. NOV.

Loigolactobacillus (Loi.go.lac.to.ba.cil’lus. Gr. masc. n. loigos destruction, ruin, havoc; N.L. masc. n Lactobacillus a bacterial genus; Loigolactobacillus, a lactobacillus with spoilage potential).

Cells are are non-motile, non-spore-forming, Grampositive, catalase negative rods, found singly and in pairs. They are homofermentative and produce both D-(−)- and L-(+)-lactic acid isomers. Pentose fermentation is species specific; most of species produce acid from D-mannose and D-mannitol. The mol% G+C content is between 40.6 and 44.3.

A phylogenetic tree on the basis of 16S rRNA genes of all species in the genus Loigolactobacillus is provided in Figure S6H.

The type species of the genus is L. coryniformis comb. nov.; Loigolactobacillus was previously referred to as L. coryniformis group.
