A Taxonomic Note on the Genus Lactobacillus

DOI 10.1099/ijsem.0.004107 A taxonomic note on the genus Lactobacillus: Description of 23 novel genera, emended description of the genus Lactobacillus Beijerinck 1901, and union of Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae Jinshui Zheng1†, Stijn Wittouck2†, Elisa Salvetti3†, Charles M.A.P. Franz4, Hugh M.B. Harris5, Paola Mattarelli6, Paul W. O’Toole5, Bruno Pot7, Peter Vandamme8, Jens Walter9,10, Koichi Watanabe11,12, Sander Wuyts2, Giovanna E. Felis3,*,†, Michael G. Gänzle9,13,*,† and Sarah Lebeer2† Abstract The genus Lactobacillus comprises 261 species (at March 2020) that are extremely diverse at phenotypic, ecological and gen- otypic levels. This study evaluated the taxonomy of Lactobacillaceae and Leuconostocaceae on the basis of whole genome sequences. Parameters that were evaluated included core genome phylogeny, (conserved) pairwise average amino acid identity, clade- specific signature genes, physiological criteria and the ecology of the organisms. Based on this polyphasic approach, we propose reclassification of the genus Lactobacillus into 25 genera including the emended genus Lactobacillus, which includes host- adapted organisms that have been referred to as the Lactobacillus delbrueckii group, Paralactobacillus and 23 novel genera for which the names Holzapfelia, Amylolactobacillus, Bombilactobacillus, Companilactobacillus, Lapidilactobacillus, Agrilactobacil- lus, Schleiferilactobacillus, Loigolactobacilus, Lacticaseibacillus, Latilactobacillus, Dellaglioa, -
Carbohydrate Catabolic Flexibility in the Mammalian Intestinal
O’ Donnell et al. Microbial Cell Factories 2011, 10(Suppl 1):S12 http://www.microbialcellfactories.com/content/10/S1/S12 PROCEEDINGS Open Access Carbohydrate catabolic flexibility in the mammalian intestinal commensal Lactobacillus ruminis revealed by fermentation studies aligned to genome annotations Michelle M O’ Donnell1,2, Brian M Forde2, B Neville2, Paul R Ross1, Paul W O’ Toole2* From 10th Symposium on Lactic Acid Bacterium Egmond aan Zee, the Netherlands. 28 August - 1 September 2011 Abstract Background: Lactobacillus ruminis is a poorly characterized member of the Lactobacillus salivarius clade that is part of the intestinal microbiota of pigs, humans and other mammals. Its variable abundance in human and animals may be linked to historical changes over time and geographical differences in dietary intake of complex carbohydrates. Results: In this study, we investigated the ability of nine L. ruminis strains of human and bovine origin to utilize fifty carbohydrates including simple sugars, oligosaccharides, and prebiotic polysaccharides. The growth patterns were compared with metabolic pathways predicted by annotation of a high quality draft genome sequence of ATCC 25644 (human isolate) and the complete genome of ATCC 27782 (bovine isolate). All of the strains tested utilized prebiotics including fructooligosaccharides (FOS), soybean-oligosaccharides (SOS) and 1,3:1,4-b-D-gluco- oligosaccharides to varying degrees. Six strains isolated from humans utilized FOS-enriched inulin, as well as FOS. In contrast, three strains isolated from cows grew poorly in FOS-supplemented medium. In general, carbohydrate utilisation patterns were strain-dependent and also varied depending on the degree of polymerisation or complexity of structure. Six putative operons were identified in the genome of the human isolate ATCC 25644 for the transport and utilisation of the prebiotics FOS, galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), SOS, and 1,3:1,4-b-D-Gluco-oligosaccharides. -
Panoramic View on Genome Diversity and Evolution of Lactic Acid Bacteria
博士論文 Panoramic View on Genome Diversity and Evolution of Lactic Acid Bacteria (乳酸菌ゲノムの多様性と進化に関する俯瞰的解析 ) Yasuhiro Tanizawa 谷澤 靖洋 Abstract Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have long been associated with human culture and industrially exploited in production and preservation of food and feed for centuries. They are isolated across the world from nutrient rich environments, such as dairy products, fermented foods, plants, and animal intestines. From a taxonomic point of view, they are distributed into over 30 genera from six families under the order Lactobacillales. Among them, the genus Lactobacillus is the largest and highly heterogeneous group comprising nearly 200 species and subspecies. Recent advance of genome sequencing technologies has realized access to enormous genomic data. Particularly in the field of microbiology, genome sequences for a variety of organisms, not limited for model organisms or human pathogens, have become available, which gave rise to new opportunities for investigating diverse species. As of April 2016, NCBI Assembly Database stores more than 700 genomes for the genus Lactobacillus, marking the largest number except for model microorganisms and pathogenic bacteria. In particular, they include genomic data of 179 Lactobacillus spp. covering over 90% of its known species. The ecological characteristics of LAB and its wealth of genomic data make this microorganism particularly attractive for revealing the diversity of microbial world and their evolutionary background. This work contains three research projects. The first two address case analyses of LAB that exhibit atypical characteristics: L. hokkaidonensis and the genus Fructobacillus. The last one addresses the development of a genome archive and annotation pipeline specialized for LAB. Psychrotolerant LAB: Lactobacillus hokkaidonensis Lactobacillus hokkaidonensis is an obligate heterofermentative LAB, which was isolated from Timothy grass silage in Hokkaido, a subarctic region of Japan. -

Published: 13 February 2018 Abstract: Tennis rackets have advanced significantly since the invention of the game in 1874, including innovations in both shape and materials. Advances in these design parameters have implications for racket performance, especially swing speed. This study tested one hundred rackets, spanning brands and eras, using simple, portable instruments in order to pilot protocols and make recommendations for streamlining testing procedures for tennis rackets. A wide range of properties were measured and documented for each racket. We suggest that since Transverse and Lateral Moment of Inertia are well correlated, measuring both is not necessary when processing a large number of rackets. In addition, it is also possible to predict the Transverse Moment of Inertia well from models that use simple dimension and mass measurements, which may be preferable in larger studies. -

Although gold standard, genome-based species delimitation cutoffs are accepted by the community, they are seldom checked against currently available genome data. In addition, there are many species-level misclassification issues within the LGC. We constructed a de novo species taxonomy for the LGC based on 2,459 publicly available, decent-quality genomes and using a 94% core nucleotide identity threshold. We reconciled thesede novo species with published species and subspecies names by (i) identifying genomes of type strains in our dataset and (ii) performing comparisons based on 16S rRNA sequence identity against type strains.
