Leuconostoc oenos and malolactic fermentation in wine: a review
This review article summarizes the state of the art on Leuconostoc oenos, the bacteria responsible for malolactic fermentation in wine. Both basic and practical aspects related to the metabolism of this microorganism and malolactic fermentation in general are critically reviewed.

Enzyme Basis for pH Regulation of Citrate and Pyruvate Metabolism by Leuconostoc oenos. [PDF]
Citrate and pyruvate metabolism by nongrowing cells of Leuconostoc oenos was investigated. (sup13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to elucidate the pathway of citrate breakdown and to probe citrate or pyruvate utilization, noninvasively, in living cell suspensions.

Isolation and characterization ofLeuconostoc oenosbacteriophages from wine and sugarcane [PDF]
Twenty bacteriophages specific for Leuconostoc oenos were isolated from South African red wines and sugarcane. Leuconostoc oenos ML34 and PSU-1, used commercially by the wine industry, were sensitive to some of the phages. Ten of the 39 L.

Variation of nutritional requirements of Leuconostoc oenos by organic acids
Leuconostoc oenos strains: m, L2 ST, X2L, have been isolated from different Argentinian red wines. Amino acids, vitamins and base requirements were determined in a synthetic medium containing L-malic acid, citric acid or both organic acids. The organisms

Weak malolactic fermentations in wine making are often attributed to the medium constituents such as ethanol and SO2. However, some authors report that the interactions between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Leuconostoc oenos could be responsible too.

Etude de la lyse de Leuconostoc oenos
La lyse de Leuconostoc oenos a été étudiée en suspension dans l'eau et dans une solution synthétique (pH 3,5; alcool 11 % v/v, acide tartrique 4 g/l). Elle a été mesurée par deux méthodes basées sur la libération de constituants cellulaires (mesure à 210

Comparison of Leuconostoc oenos Strains by Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis. [PDF]
Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of chromosomal DNA digested with Not I or Sfi I was used to differentiate individual strains of Leuconostoc oenos. L. oenos isolates with 13 different restriction digest patterns were detected in New Zealand wines undergoing malolactic ...

The Growth Factor and Amino Acid Requirements of Species of the Genus Leuconostoc, including Leuconostoc paramesenteroides (sp.nov.) and Leuconostoc oenos [PDF]
SUMMARY: The vitamin requirements of 63 strains and the amino acid requirements of 40 strains belonging to the genus Leuconostoc have been determined. The amino acid requirements separate the genus into dextran and non-dextran formers and in particular indicated that non-dextran formers should be excluded from Leuconostoc mesenteroides.

Medium for Screening Leuconostoc oenos Strains Defective in Malolactic Fermentation. [PDF]
A new sensitive medium was developed to screen and isolate mutagenic Leuconostoc oenos strains defective in malolactic fermentation. The essential components of the medium included fructose (22 mM), l -malic acid (74.6 mM), bromocresol green (as pH indicator), and cellulose powder.
