• Notes:
  • 🙋 This subspecies could be automatically created (rule 40d) by the valid publication of Lactobacillus buchneri subsp. silagei Tanizawa et al. 2020 but an explicit description was also provided. Publication: Tanizawa Y, Kobayashi H, Nomura M, Sakamoto M, Arita M, Nakamura Y, Ohkuma M, Tohno M. Lactobacillus buchneri subsp. silagei subsp. nov., isolated from rice grain silage. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2020; 70:3111-3116.
  • ❗ Lactobacillus buchneri subsp. buchneri is the correct name instead if this subspecies is regarded as a separate subspecies (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another subspecies whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate species Lactobacillus buchneri within a separate genus Lactobacillus.
  • 🙅 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as a synonym of the name to be applied to this subspecies. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of other species in the genus.
  • 🧍 While this subspecies name can be regarded as automatically created according to Rule 40d, this is based on a another subspecies name that violates Rule 53. Publication: Oren A, Arahal DR, Goker M, Moore ERB, Rossello-Mora R, Sutcliffe IC. International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Prokaryotic Code (2022 Revision). Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2023; 73:5585.
