AQUISALIMONAS ASIATICA

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Aquisalimonas
Species: Aquisalimonas asiatica
Description: ells are 0.7–0.9×2.0–10.0 μm. Colonies are 1 mm in diameter, non-pigmented, circular and entire on the maintenance medium after 2 days cultivation at 37 °C. In liquid nutrient broth, usually grows with a strong tendency to form clumps at the bottom. Grows over a wide range (1–20 %, w/v) of salt concentrations, with optimal growth at 7–10 % (w/v) salts. Grows at 20–50 °C (optimally at 37 °C) and pH 6.0–10.8 (optimally at pH 7.5–8.5). Strictly aerobic. Grows anaerobically with nitrate.
