discussion
Loigolactobacillus bifermentans (bi. fer. men ′ tans. L. pref. bi twice; L. pres. part. fermentans leavening; N. L. part. adj. bifermentans doubly fermenting). Basonym: Lactobacillus bifermentans (ex Pette and van Beynum 1943) Kandler etal. 1983, 896 VP L. bifermentans strains are non-motile irregular rods with rounded or often tapered ends; clumps are often observed. Lactic acid is fermented to acetic acid, ethanol, traces of propionic acid, carbondioxideandfree H 2 [190]. Thegenome size of thetypestrainis 3.14 Mbp. The mol % G + C content of DNAis 44.3.
