Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. delbrueckii

Lactobacillus delbrueckii (del.bruec’ki.i. N.L. gen. n. delbrueckii , of Delbrück, named after M. Delbrück, a German bacteriologist).

L. delbrueckii subsp. delbrueckii ferments glucose to D(−)-lactic acid and also metabolises sucrose, fructose and mannose, but not lactose. Characteristics of the species/subspecies are provided by [ 61 – 65]. The genome size is 1.75 Mbp and the mol% G+C content of DNA is 49.9.

Isolated from vegetable source, sour grain mash and fermented grains.

The type strain is ATCC 9649 T = CCUG 34222 T = CIP 57.8 T = DSM 20074 T = IFO (now NBRC) 3202 T = JCM 1012 T = LMG 6412 T = NCIMB 8130 T (formerly NCDO 213 ) = NRRL B-763 T = VKM B-1596 T.

Genome sequence accession number: AZCR00000000.
