Abstract

The levels of genotypic relatedness among seven strains of spp. isolated from Argentine raw milk, DSM 20202 (T = type strain) and DSM 20198, subsp. NCDO 523, subsp. NCDO 529, and DSM 20288 were determined by performing a numerical analysis of total soluble cell protein patterns and DNA-DNA hybridization data. The Argentine raw milk strains formed a tight genotypic cluster at an value of = 0.85 and exhibited low levels of DNA homology with the other species included in this study. These strains represent a new species within the group of leuconostocs isolated from milk or dairy products. The name sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is strain LL76.
