description
(AMBP 158, AMBP 159, AMBP 163, AMBP 229, AMBP 231, AMBP 240, AMBP 241, AMBP 243, AMBP 252, AMBP 253, AMBP 254, AMBP 256), which were isolated from the same sample and have high similarity to AMBP 162 T for the 16 S rRNA gene and rpoA gene (99.9 and 98.4 %, respectively), are considered to belong to the new species as well.
description
Furthermore, strain AMBP 162 T can be discriminated from the type strains of L. graminis and L. curvatus based on its ability to ferment arabinose and sucrose, and the ability to produce catalase when haem and menaquinone are present in the growth medium.
etymology
On the basis of the low ANI to the closest type strain of a known species, isolate AMBP 162 T is considered to represent a novel species within the genus Latilactobacillus, for which the name Latilactobacillus fragifolii sp. nov. is proposed. Twelve other isolates
