Fructilactobacillusfructivorans (fruc. ti. vo’rans. L. masc. n. fructus, fruit; L. part. pres. vorans, eating, devouring; N. L. part. adj. fructivorans, fruit-eating, intended to mean fructose-devouring). Basonym: Lactobacillus fructivorans Charlton et al. 1934, 1 (Approved Lists) The type species of Fructilactobacillus was described as Lactobacillus fructivorans in 1934 [304] and includes strains that were previously described as Lactobacillus heterohiochii, Lactobacillus trichodes [305], and L. homohiochii [306]. Lactobacillus homohiochii was isolated from Saké mashes and described as homofermentative Lactobacillus species [307]. The heterofermentative L. heterohiochii (later classified as F. fructivorans comb. nov.) was isolated from the same mash. The type strain of L. homohiochii, which likely represents an organism related to Lactobacillus acetotolerans, has been lost [308]. F. fructivorans tolerates ethanol concentrations of up to 15 %. The genome size of the type strain is 1.37 Mbp. The mol % G + C content of DNA is 38.9. F. fructivorans is stable member of the intestinal microbiota of fruit flies [309] as well as spoiled sake mashes [58]; it was also isolated from spoiled mayonnaise, salad dressings, sourdough, dessert wines and aperitifs.
