ABSTRACT: The genus Lactobacillus has represented an extremely large and diverse collection of bacteria that populate a wide range of habitats, and which may have industrial applications. Researchers have grappled with the immense genetic, metabolic, and ecological diversity within the genus Lactobacillus for many years. As a result, the taxonomy of lactobacilli has been extensively revised, incorporating new genus names for many lactobacilli based on their characteristics including genomic similarities. As a result, many lactobacilli traditionally associated with dairy products now have new genus names and are grouped into new clades or clusters of species. In this review, we examine how the taxonomic restructuring of the genus Lactobacillus will affect the dairy industry and discuss lactobacilli associated with dairy production, processing, and those that confer possible health benefits when delivered by dairy products.
