PSEUDOVIBRIO DENITRIFICANS
| Class: | Alpha Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Pseudovibrio |
| Species: | Pseudovibrio denitrificans |
| Description: | Pseudovibrio denitrificans, a marine, facultatively anaerobic, fermentative bacterium capable of denitrification .Two denitrifying strains of heterotrophic, facultatively anaerobic, marine bacteria, designated DN34T and DN33, were isolated from sea-water samples collected in Nanwan Bay, Kenting National Park, Taiwan. They were Gram-negative. Cells in late exponential to early stationary phase of growth were predominantly straight or curved rods, but Y- or V-shaped forms were also observed. They were motile by means of one to several lateral or subpolar flagella. Both strains required NaCl for growth and exhibited optimal growth at about 30 °C, pH 8 and 3 % NaCl. |
