discussion
Loigolactobacillus iwatensis (i. wa. ten’sis. N. L. masc. adj. iwatensis of or belonging to Mount Iwate, where the first strains were isolated). Basonym: Lactobacillus iwatensis Tohno et al. 2013, 3856 VP L. iwatensis strains are facultatively anaerobic, non-sporeforming and non-motile rods. They are homofermentative; they are positive for C 4 esterase, leucine aminopeptidase, valine aminopeptidase and acid phosphatase [189]. The genome size of the type strain is 2.62 Mbp. The mol % G + C content of DNA is 40.6.
