Lentilactobacillus buchneri strain:A KKP 2047p Genome sequencing
Lentilactobacillus buchneri A KKP 2047p, isolated from corn silage (IBPRS-PIB), metabolizes 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PD), unusually for its species. While showing poor growth on 1,2-PD alone, glucose enhances its growth and propionic acid production. It's used as silage inoculant, improving biogas and preservation. This strain has been the subject of patents and publications, highlighting its unique properties and potential applications.
