Pediococcus claussenii is a species of Gram-positive bacteria. Like other Pediococcus species, P. claussenii is implicated in the spoilage of fermented beverages[1] due to its production of diacetyl. Strains of this species were originally isolated from spoiled beer.[2]

The genome of P. claussenii strain ATCC BAA-344 has been sequenced.[3]
