Treatment

Lactobacillus equicursoris (e.qui.cur’so.ris. L. masc. n. equus a horse; L. gen. n. cursoris of a runner or racer; N.L. gen. n. equicursoris of a racing horse, referring to the isolation of the type strain from faeces of a thoroughbred racehorse).

L. equicursoris produces D(−)-lactic acid from glucose. It utilises glucose, fructose, galactose, mannose, cellobiose, lactose and mannitol for growth and acid production [ 82]. The genome size is 2.05 Mbp and the mol% G+C content of DNA is 47.7.

Isolated from a thoroughbred racehorse.

The type strain is DI70 T =DSM 19284 T =JCM 14600 T.

Genome sequence accession number: AZDU00000000.

16S rRNA gene accession number: AB290830.
