*API 50 CH test data of L. reuteri subsp. murium (lpuph1T and LTH5448) and L. reuteri subsp. rodentium (100-23T and TMW1.656) were obtained from [51].

†API 50 CH test data of L. reuteri DSM 20016T and L. vaginalis DSM 5837T were retrieved from the Bacterial Diversity Metadatabase (BacDive; https://bacdive.dsmz.de/).
