Abstract: This paper reviews recent progress in the research on the diversity of lactic acid bacteria in traditional fermented vegetables in China. The predominant lactic acid bacteria in pickled mustard tuber, fermented kohlrabi, northeast sauerkraut, and fermented pepper are analyzed, and problems existing in this field of research are also discussed. It is hoped that this review will provide valuable data for elucidating the role of lactic acid bacteria in flavor formation in traditional fermented vegetables.

Key words: traditional fermented vegetables, lactic acid bacteria, diversity
