sp. nov., a novel lactic acid bacterium isolated from fresh coffee beans No Access

Abstract

A coccus-shaped organism, designated ALS3, was isolated from fresh coffee cherries collected at a farm located in the Ali Mountain region of Taiwan. Sequence analysis of its 16S rRNA gene indicated that strain ALS3 belongs to the genus and has more than 98.5 % sequence similarity to and . When comparing the ALS3 genome with these two type strains, the average nucleotide identity values and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values were 72.6–73.3 and 19.2 %, respectively. The G+C content of the genomic DNA from strain ALS3 was 35.6 mol%. Results of sequence analysis, together with enzymatic activities and characteristics of carbohydrate metabolism, indicated that strain ALS3 is distinct and represents a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ALS3 (=NBRC 109593=BCRC 80605).
