Description

DESCRIPTION OF LIGILACTOBACILLUS SALIVARIUS COMB. NOV.

Ligilactobacillus salivarius (sa.li.va’ri.us. L. masc. adj. salivarius salivary).

Basonym: Lactobacillus salivarius Rogosa et al. 1953, 691 (Approved Lists); emend. Li et al. 2006

L. salivarius strains require pteroylglutamic acid and niacin for good growth. Riboflavin is also markedly stimulatory. Good growth does not take place in media unless polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) is added [61, 212]. The genome size of the type strains is 1.98 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 37.5.

Isolated from the mouth and intestinal tract of humans, cats, hamsters, chickens and swine, and from dairy products; the species shows no adaptation to specific hosts [213].

The type strain is H066 T = ATCC 11741 T = CCUG 31453 T = CIP 103140 T = DSM 20555 T = JCM 1231 T = LMG 9477 T = NRRL B-1949 T.

Genome accession number: AYYT00000000.

16S rRNA gene accession number: AF089108.
