The Classification of Lactobacilli from the Human Mouth (original) (raw)

Abstract

Summary: A scheme of classification for Lactobacillus strains from diverse sources is proposed, based upon the results obtained with 473 strains, mainly of human oral origin, using a selected range of morphological and physiological taxonomic criteria. Two subgeneric groups, containing five stable and clearly demarcated specific types are recognized.
