PCR results are indicated with + if an amplicon was observed, and with − if no amplicon was observed, after PCR.
Type strain.
Strains were from the Agroscope Culture Collection (Switzerland) (FAM); the German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSM); the Belgian Coordinated Collections of Microorganisms (LMG); and the Culture Collection University of Göteborg (Sweden) (CCUG); DVS, Direct Vat Set culture from Chr. Hansen Holding A/S, Denmark.
