Overview

  • Ligilactobacillus pobuzihii, (aka Lactobacillus pobuzihii), is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. The DNA G+C content is 37.2%. Ligilactobacillus pobuzihii is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Rossi2016)



  • This organism has been recovered from pobuzihi (fermented cummingcordia), Taiwan. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal.
