ROSEOBACTER ALGICOLA
| Class: | Alpha Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Roseobacter |
| Species: | Roseobacter algicola |
| Description: | The cells of the type strain of Roseobacter algicola (strain FF3) are ovoid (width,(0.8 to 1.6 pm) in the logarithmic growth phase. The cells are gram negative, do not form spores, and are motile by means of one or two subpolar flagella. Colonies on salt-containing agar media are beige when the cultures are young and pinkish beige after 96 h of incubation. Cells grow at temperatures ranging from 10 to 3TC, and optimal growth occurs at 25 to 30°C. A New Marine Bacterium Isolated from the Phycosphere of the Toxin-Producing Dinoflagellate Prorocentrum lima. |
