摘要

The lactobacilli identified to date encompass more than 270 closely related species that were recently reclassified into 26 genera. Because of their relevance to industry, there is a need to distinguish between closely related and yet metabolically and regulatory distinct species, e.g., during monitoring of biotechnological processes or screening of samples of unknown composition. Current available methods, such as shotgun metagenomics or rRNA gene-based amplicon sequencing, have significant limitations (high cost, low resolution, etc.). Here, we generated a phylogeny of lactobacilli based on phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase (pheS) genes and, from it, developed a highresolution taxonomic framework which allows for comprehensive and confident characterization of the community diversity and structure of lactobacilli at the species level. This framework is based on a total of 445 pheS gene sequences, including sequences of 276 validly described species and subspecies (of a total of 282, including the proposed L. timonensis species and the reproposed L. zeae species; coverage of 98%), and allows differentiation between 265 species-level clades of lactobacilli and the subspecies of L. sakei. The methodology was validated through next-generation sequencing of mock communities. At a sequencing depth of >30,000 sequences, the minimum level of detection was approximately 0.02 pg per -l DNA (equaling approximately 10 genome copies per -l template DNA). The pheS approach, along with parallel sequencing of partial 16S rRNA genes, revealed considerable diversity of lactobacilli and distinct community structures across a broad range of samples from different environmental niches. This novel complementary approach may be applicable to industry and academia alike. IMPORTANCE Species formerly classified within the genera Lactobacillus and Pediococcus have been studied extensively at the genomic level. To accommodate their exceptional functional diversity, the over 270 species were recen
