Abstract

Four Gram-positive, catalase-negative, short rod-shaped or coccoid, heterofermentative lactic acid bacterial strains (2L24P13^T, 1L48P15, 1L24P31 and 1L24P34) with unusual phenotypic and genotypic properties were isolated from submerged fermenting cassava on MRS agar. All strains were motile, grew at 15 °C, produced DL-lactic acid from glucose with gas formation and produced ammonia from arginine. Acid was produced from D-fructose, D-galactose, D-glucose, lactose, maltose, D-mannose, melibiose, D-raffinose, sucrose, N-acetylglucosamine and D-mannitol, but not from D-arabinose or xylose. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the strains belonged to the genus Weissella and were most closely related to Weissella ghanensis LMG 24286 ^T. Low DNA"DNA reassociation values were obtained between the isolates and W. ghanensis DSM 19935^T. Based on the genetic and phenotypic results, the strains are considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Weissella beninensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 2L24P13^T (5DSM 22752^T=LMG 25373^T).
