NOV. Liquorilactobacillus mali (ma’li. L. gen. n. mali , of an apple). Basonym: Lactobacillus mali Carr and Davies 1970 , 769 (Approved Lists); emend. Kaneuchi etal . 1988, 272 L. mali cells are non-motile or weakly motile with a few peritrichous flagella. Liquid cultures are turbid after few days, with subsequent clearingand sediment. Theyproduce acetoin anddextran; malicacidisdecomposed tolacticacidand CO 2 . Most strains have a pseudocatalase activity when they grow on MRS agar with 0.1 % (w/v) glucose [ 195 , 196 ]. The genome size of the typestrain is 2.59. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 36.1. Isolated from wine must, fermenting cider, fermented molasses, water kefirs, cocoa bean fermentations and table olives.
