Lactococcus
''Lactococcus'' is a genus of lactic acid bacteria that were formerly included in the genus ''Streptococcus'' Group N1. They are known as homofermenters meaning that they produce a single product, lactic acid in this case, as the major or only product of glucose fermentation. Their homofermentative character can be altered by adjusting environmental conditions such as pH, glucose concentration, and nutrient limitation. They are gram-positive, catalase-negative, non-motile cocci that are found singly, in pairs, or in chains. The genus contains strains known to grow at or below 7˚C. Twelve species of ''Lactococcus'' are currently recognized. They are: *''Lactococcus chungangensis'' *''Lactococcus formosensis'' *''Lactococcus fujiensis'' *''Lactococcus garvieae'' **''L. garvieae subsp. garvieae **''L. garvieae subsp. bovis *''Lactococcus hircilactis'' *''Lactococcus lactis'' **''L. lactis'' subsp.

Lactococcus Lactis
''Lactococcus lactis'' is a Gram-positive bacterium used extensively in the production of buttermilk and cheese, but has also become famous as the first genetically modified organism to be used alive for the treatment of human disease. ''L. lactis'' cells are cocci that group in pairs and short chains, and, depending on growth conditions, appear ovoid with a typical length of 0.5 - 1.5  µm. ''L. lactis'' does not produce spores ( nonsporulating) and are not motile ( nonmotile). They have a homofermentative metabolism, meaning they produce lactic acid from sugars. They've also been reported to produce exclusive L-(+)-lactic acid. However, reported D-(−)-lactic acid can be produced when cultured at low pH. The capability to produce lactic acid is one of the reasons why ''L. lactis'' is one of the most important microorganisms in the dairy industry. Based on its history in food fermentation, ''L. lactis'' has generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status, with few case reports ...

Lactococcus Garvieae
''Lactococcus garvieae'' is a known fish pathogen affecting saltwater fish in the Far East, specifically in rainbow trout, Japanese yellowtail, Cobia (''Rachycentron canadum'') and grey mullet (''Mugil cephalus''). This bacteria causes lesions in the vascular endothelium, leading to hemorrhages and petechias at the surface of internal organs. As few as 10 bacterial cells per fish can cause an infection. ''L. garvieae'' is isolated in saltwater fish in the Far East and specifically in European Rainbow Trout. Host range ''Lactococcus garvieae'' is usually identified within aquatic species. However, it has also been found in subclinical intramammary infections in cows, subclinical mastitis in water buffalos, poultry meat, raw cow's milk, meat products, porcine blood from industrial abattoirs and from cat and dog tonsils. History ''Lactococcus garvieae'' was first discovered in rainbow trout raised on a Japanese fish farm in the 1950s. In 1988, ''L. garvieae'' was identified in the ...

Lactococcus Piscium
''Lactococcus piscium'' is a known fish pathogen affecting salmonid Salmonidae is a family of ray-finned fish that constitutes the only currently extant family in the order Salmoniformes . It includes salmon (both Atlantic and Pacific species), trout (both ocean-going and landlocked), chars, freshwater whitefis ... fish, which has nevertheless been found in other sources, such as packaged beef. Its type strain is NCFB 2778. L. piscium has shown promise as a bioprotective culture in the preservation of seafood. The bacterium has exhibited the ability to prevent sensory deterioration of food and inhibit the growth of other psychrophilic bacteria that may produce spoilage.
