Thirty-five strains of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis and subsp. bulgaricus isolated from dairy products were typed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of protein-coding genes. The strains were analysed by RFLP of PCR amplified, infragenic fragments of the following housekeeping genes: beta-galactosidase, lactose permease, and proline dipeptidase. Sequencing of the variable regions of the 16S rDNA was then performed on a reduced number of strains. PCR-RFLP analysis evidenced wide strain heterogeneity. Strains were grouped into genotypes according to both subspecies assignment and infra-species genetic polymorphism. This polymorphism was related to the presence of microbial groups within subspecies populations. The low infra-species sequence polymorphism detected in the variable region of the 16S rRNA gene did not enable to group the strains with the same sensitivity reached by PCR-RFLP of protein-coding genes. PCR-RFLP of protein-coding genes applied to L. delbrueckii seems a promising tool to evaluate microbial diversity within bacterial subpopulations. Differences among bacterial subpopulations based upon molecular heterogeneity in protein-coding genes would enable to better understand the role of strains from different ecological niches.
