Genetic and Technological Characterisation of Vineyard- and Winery-Associated Lactic Acid Bacteria

Table 1

Species identification of bacteria isolates based on 16S-ARDRA profiles and sequence analysis.

Profile	Approximate Sizes of Restriction Fragments (bp)	Species
I		Lactobacillus graminis
II		Lactobacillus hilgardii
III		Lactobacillus plantarum
IV		Lactococcus lactis
V		Oenococcus oeni
VI		Pediococcus parvulus
VII		Pediococcus pentosaceus
VIII		Staphylococcus epidermidis
IX		Weissella sp.

Lactobacillus plantarum was differentiated from L. pentosus and L. paraplantarum with a multiplex PCR assay using recA gene-derived primers.
