Cells are non-motile rods, usually singly, in pairs or in short chains. The cell wall contains meso-diaminopimelic acid, alanine, glutamic acid, galactose and an unidentified sugar. They produce acetoin from pyruvate.
L. herbarum
can be distinguished from related species on the basis of sucrose fermentation (it does not ferment sucrose) and growth temperature (it cannot grow at 37 °C) [
234
]. The genome size of the type strain is 2.90 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNAis 43.5.
