Systematic study of the genus Acetobacter with descriptions of Acetobacter indonesiensis sp. nov., Acetobacter tropicalis sp. nov., Acetobacter orleanensis(Henneberg 1906) comb. nov., Acetobacter lovaniensis(Frateur 1950) comb. nov., and Acetobacter estunensis(Carr 1958) comb. nov.

Re-examination of the genus Acetobacter, with descriptions of Acetobacter cerevisiae sp. nov. and Acetobacter malorum sp. nov

“…et al, 1983b ;Swings et al, 1992). Analogous results were obtained by Lisdiyanti et al (2000). The GjC content of the strains belonging to A. cerevisiae varied from 56n0 to 57n6 mol %.…”

“…et al, 1983b ;Franke et al, 1999 ;Boesch et al, 1998 ;Yamada et al, 1997 ;Yamada, 2000 ;Lisdiyanti et al, 2000). In our hands, all Acetobacter strains grew on medium 13 (Janssens et al, 1998), also known as YPM agar (0n5 % yeast extract, 0n3 % peptone, 2n5% -mannitol and 1n5 % agar), although in most cases this growth was not abundant.…”

“…At the time of writing, the genus consisted of nine species : Acetobacter aceti, Acetobacter pasteurianus, Acetobacter pomorum, Acetobacter peroxydans, Acetobacter lovaniensis, Acetobacter estunensis, Acetobacter orleanensis, Acetobacter indonesiensis and Acetobacter tropicalis. These species were delineated mainly on the basis of DNA-DNA relatedness and phylogenetic relationships (Sokollek et al, 1998 ;Lisdiyanti et al, 2000). In the course of a larger study set up to improve the identification of Acetobacteraceae, 16 strains from the heterogeneous species A. pasteurianus, as well as 17 reference strains representing all known Acetobacter species, were analysed genotypically and phenotypically.…”

“…The genus Acetobacter contains 19 species comprising A. aceti, A. indonesiensis, A. cerevisiae, A. cibinongensis, A. pasteurianus, A. lovaniensis, A. orleanensis, A. estunensis, A. malorum, A. orientalis, A. peroxydans, A. pomorum, A. syzygii, A. tropicalis, A. oeni, A. ghanensis, A. nitrogenifigens, A. senegalensis, and A. fabarum [1][2][3][4][5] . Acetobacter strains exhibit the capability of producing acetic acid from ethanol, oxidize acetate and lactate to CO 2 and water, and contain the major ubiquinone with nine isoprene units (Q-9) 3,6 .…”
