**7. Conclusions**

*Lactobacilli*, a potentially significant group of microorganisms that play a fundamental role in the fermentation industry for the production of numerous valuable products such as cheese, yoghurt, fermented milk, kefir, enzymes, medicines, etc. Because of the diverse applications *lactobacillus* genus open new doors for exciting research areas. The application of lactobacilli in feed, pharmaceuticals and probiotics ensures to reduce the rate of mortality and morbidity associated with gastroenteritis and viral infections. The extensive industrial application of Lactobacilli demanded further research to enhance the potential of the species of this group and to isolate efficient strains which can produce multiple products of commercial practice. *Lactobacilli* have the futuristic potential for utilization in a diversity of industrial applications and hence can be considered a significant candidate for poverty elimination, reducing hunger by producing a diverse range of food products, increasing the shelf life by preserving the food and providing valuable pharmaceutical products.
