Three lactic acid bacterial (LAB) strains obtained from a Malaysian acid-fermented condiment, tempoyak (made from pulp of the durian fruit), showed analogous but distinct patterns after screening by SDS-PAGE of whole-cell proteins and comparison with profiles of all recognized LAB species. 16S rRNA gene sequencing of one representative strain showed that the taxon belongs phylogenetically to the genus Leuconostoc, with its nearest neighbour being Leuconostoc fructosum (98 % sequence similarity). Biochemical characteristics and DNA–DNA hybridization experiments demonstrated that the strains differ from Leuconostoc fructosum and represent a single, novel Leuconostoc species for which the name Leuconostoc durionis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LMG 22556T (=LAB 1679T=D-24T=CCUG 49949T).

Abbreviations: LAB, lactic acid bacteria

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of LMG 22556T is AJ780981.

Protein profiles and a corresponding dendrogram of Leuconostoc durionis and other Leuconostoc species are available as a supplementary figure in IJSEM Online.
