ALTEROMONAS GENOVENSIS
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Alteromonas |
| Species: | Alteromonas genovensis |
| Description: | Cells are Gram-negative rods (0.9 X 1.8μm), motile by a single polar flagellum. Buds and prosthecae are formed when isolates are grown at lower temperatures (15°C) for more than 3 days. Prostheca formation is peritrichous and prosthecae are short and straight. The prosthecae are most often found on aggregated cells derived from the bacterial colony. |
