Lactiplantibacillus modestisalitolerans (mo.des.ti.sa.li.to’le. rans. L. masc. adj. modestus moderate; L. masc. n. sal salis salt; L. pres. part. tolerans tolerating; N.L. part. adj. modestisalitolerans moderately salt tolerating). Basonym: Lactobacillus modestisalitolerans Miyashita et al . 2015, 2489 VP Cells are non-motile, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic rods. They grow at 15–40 °C, pH 3.5–7.5, and 0–9 % NaCl. They produce both lactic acid isomers. They hydrolyse aesculin, are tellurite and bile-aesculin tolerant and convert arginine to ornithine [ 235 ]. The genome size of the type strain is 2.75 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 48.6. Isolated from Pla-som (fermented fish). The type strain is NB446 T = NBRC 107235 T = BCC 38191 T . Genome sequence accession number: BJEA00000000. 16S rRNA gene accession number: AB907192 .
