Thetypestrainis GDA 154 T = CCUG 48462 T = DSM 16049 T = JCM 15955 T = LMG 22087 T. Genome accession number: AZFP 00000000. 16 S rRNA gene accession number: AY 255802.
discussion
Ligilactobacillus saerimneri (sae. rim’ne. ri. N. L. gen. masc. n. saerimneri of Saerimner, a pig occurringin Nordic mythology, because the organism was isolated from pigs). Basonym: Lactobacillus saerimneri Pedersen and Roos 2004, 1367 VP Strains of this species grows aerobically in MRS agar but at a lower rate compared to anaerobic growth. They do not hydrolize aesculin [226]. Thegenome size of the type strainis 1.69 Mbp. The mol % G + C content of DNA is 42.6.
